Direct Tension Indicator Washer

Direct Tension indicators(DTI Washers), also known as Auto Torque Indicators, are single-use mechanical load cells designed to indicate the magnitude of preload in the assembly, It shows if the bolt is properly tensioned, it is very useful while tensioning High Strength Structural bolts. Direct tension indicator washers (DTIs) are innovative fasteners designed to provide a visual indication of proper bolt tension. These washers feature protrusions that flatten as the bolt is tightened to the specified tension, ensuring accurate and reliable tensioning in structural and high-stress applications. Ideal for use in construction, bridges, and heavy machinery, DTIs enhance safety and performance by guaranteeing correct tension in critical assemblies. Made from high-quality materials, these washers offer excellent durability and resistance to wear and environmental conditions.

Introduction to Direct Tension Indicator Washers


Direct Tension Indicator (DTI) washers are specialized components designed to provide an accurate measurement of the clamping force or tension in a bolt. These washers feature a series of raised indicators that flatten when the correct tension is achieved, allowing for a visual and straightforward method to confirm proper bolt tensioning. DTIs are critical in applications where precise bolt tension is essential for structural integrity, safety, and performance. At Pankaj International, a leading fastener manufacturer in Ludhiana, we produce high-quality DTI washers that meet stringent industry standards, ensuring reliability and accuracy in various applications.

Features and Benefits of Direct Tension Indicator Washers


Direct Tension Indicator washers offer several distinct advantages that make them essential for precise bolting applications:-

  • Accurate Tension Measurement: The raised indicators on the washer compress and flatten when the correct tension is applied, providing a clear and accurate indication of proper clamping force.
  • Enhanced Safety: By ensuring that bolts are tightened to the correct tension, DTI washers help prevent over-tightening or under-tightening, which can lead to structural failures or safety hazards.
  • Visual Confirmation: The visual nature of DTI washers allows for quick and easy verification of bolt tension, streamlining the inspection and quality control process.
  • High Strength: Made from high-grade materials, our DTI washers are designed to withstand significant loads and stresses, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Available in various finishes, including stainless steel, our DTI washers offer excellent resistance to corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh environments.
