At Ananka Fasteners Pvt Ltd, we manufacture and supply fasteners certified to ASTM A394. ASTM A394 covers zinc-coated and bare steel bolts used in the construction of electrical transmission towers, substations, and similar steel structures, in nominal thread diameters of 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 7/8 and 1 in. Requirements are stated as minimum full-size tensile loads rather than a single ksi value; the standard defines low/medium-carbon (Type 0), quenched-and-tempered medium-carbon (Type 1) and weathering steel (Type 3) bolts.

Minimum mechanical requirements per ASTM A394.
| Grade / Class / Condition | Tensile Strength, min | Yield Strength, min | Elongation, min % | Hardness |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Type 0 (min tensile load, 1/2 in. / 1 in. bolt) | ~74 (510) equiv; 10,500 / 44,850 lbf | Not specified | – | – |
| Type 1 (min tensile load, 1/2 in. / 1 in. bolt) | ~120 (825) equiv; 17,050 / 72,700 lbf | Not specified | – | – |
| Type 3 (min tensile load, 1/2 in. / 1 in. bolt) | ~120 (825) equiv; 17,050 / 72,700 lbf | Not specified | – | – |
| Grade | Key Composition, % |
|---|---|
| Type 0 / 1 | Carbon steel; P 0.04 max, S 0.05 max |
| Type 3 | Weathering steel with Cu, Cr, Ni, Si additions for atmospheric corrosion resistance |
Nuts per ASTM A563 and washers per F436; often used with A563 heavy hex nuts. Type 3 weathering steel parallels ASTM A325 Type 3. Values shown are the standard’s full-size tensile loads converted to approximate stress on the thread stress area.
