The innovative bolting solution

What is Superbolt?
Superbolt tensioners are designed as direct replacements for conventional nuts and bolts. These devices can be threaded onto a
new or existing bolt, stud, threaded rod or shaft. The main thread serves to position the tensioner on the bolt or stud against the
hardened washer and the load bearing surface. Once it is positioned, actual tensioning of the bolt or stud is accomplished with
simple hand tools by torquing the jackbolts which encircle the main thread. The jackbolts transfer the preload evenly into the
main thread and, consequently, onto the joint. The main thread is tightened in pure tension.

How Superbolt tensioners work:

1) By tightening the jackbolts, a strong thrust (axial)
force is generated. This thrust force is directed
against a hardened washer. Jackbolts have a small
friction diameter and can therefore create a high
thrust force with relatively little torque input.
1
2) The loads are transferred through the nut body
which is positioned on the main thread by hand.

Proven and certified

Over the years, the product types in our wide range of
multi-jackbolt tensioners have been tested and approved
by several certification institutes. For some of our product
series we have also achieved design and type approvals for
production. Below are some examples:
DNV (Det Norske Veritas)
GL (Germanischer Lloyd)
Siemens system audit

Proven in the field

Superbolt tensioners are used in many industries:
Hydropower, wind turbines, gas and steam turbines,
nuclear, steel, mining, shipbuilding, offshore, chemical,
transportation, to name a few.

The high level of experience we have in pre-engineered

products for specific challenges allows us to upon request
for certain ranges supply certification from for example:
ABS (American Bureau of Shipping)
TV
Lloyds Register
Vinotte
For more detailed information on certificates / approvals for
a specific product or production site, please contact your
local Nord-Lock office. Please note that the certificates you
require should be requested prior to ordering to ensure we
comply with your needs.

3) A hardened washer is used to transfer the force

while protecting the flange face.
4) The thrust (axial) force of many jackbolts and the
opposite reaction force of the main bolt head
create a strong clamping force on the flange.

4
5) The thrust (axial) force from the jackbolt creates
an equally strong reaction force in the main bolt.

Advantages from start to finish

Design

Operation

Maintenance

Our engineers can help you determine dimensions and

load conditions of your bolted joints. We can evaluate
your current tightening method and calculate bolt preloads
necessary for reliability and durability. OEMs all over the
world specify our multi-jackbolt tensioners in their design
to improve the performance of their product.

The huge mechanical advantage of Superbolt products

means only simple hand tools are required to tighten
any size bolt or stud. Lets take a closer look at the
advantages your workers will realize during installation.

The ability to maintain necessary preload is crucial

for keeping machinery running. Using multi-jackbolt
technology allows proper preloading of the bolted joint
in operation.

Routine equipment maintenance requires removal

and re-installation of Superbolt tensioners. Using and
maintaining multi-jackbolt tensioners is safe and easy.

Advantages:

Advantages:

Higher preload - Tightening in pure tension allows

higher preloads on the same size bolt versus other
tightening methods.

Hand tools only - Ordinary hand wrenches or

pneumatic wrenches are the only tools required to
generate immense bolt stresses.

Accuracy - Accurate and even tension across bolted

joints reduces the tendency for leakages or uneven
loading of adjacent fasteners.

Easy to check - Due to the low torques required, it is

easy to inspect that the joint is tight with simple
torque tests using hand tools.

Proper bolted joint - Generating preload high

enough above the separating forces means your bolting
will not vibrate loose on properly designed joints. This
can eliminate costly equipment downtime.

Increased safety - Installations are safe because only

small hand tools are required. This means no safety
hazards from immense hydraulic pressures, pinching
hazards, heavy lifting of large tools, or sockets
breaking under high pressure.

Properly bolted - The ability to achieve high preloads

ensures a joint that does not loosen unintentionally.

Multiple workers - Because only hand tools are

needed, multiple workers can work in conjunction
when required.

Space restrictions - Multi-jackbolt tensioners are easy

to install in confined spaces.

Meeting your challenges - Special designs can

accommodate space restrictions or environmental
/ temperature conditions in any type of operating
environment.

Elasticity - Added elasticity increases fatigue life of the

bolted joint.
Design options - High preload capacity and accuracy
can allow for the design of smaller bolt sizes. Compact
dimensions and reduction of tooling sizes allows for
reduction of the size of machinery, reducing material
and machining cost.

First installation

Save time - Superbolt tensioners can be tightened in a

fraction of the time compared to most other methods.
Even though there are multiple jackbolts to tighten,
field experience has proven that by using air tools
installation times are fast and easy. Case studies
available at www.superbolt.com

Reliability - Superbolt tensioners increase the fatigue

life of the bolted joint.

Downtime - Properly designed and tightened joints

will not come loose in service. This reduces downtime.

Galling - tightening in pure tension eliminates thread

galling that commonly occurs with direct torquing
methods.
Removal - Ease of removal reduces expensive
downtime that can occur with standard bolting
methods.
Reusable - Preload can be restored almost anywhere
under any conditions with simple hand tools.
Superbolt tensioners are fully reusable.

Incorporating multi-jackbolt technology into a bolt:

Has all of the preload and low torque advantages of

the MJT nuts.
Requires less head diameter and therefore less space

than nut-style MJTs.
Reduces the number of parts versus stud and nuts.
Small head dimensions can fit into tight countersinks
or space restrictions.

Components:
1 Nut body
2 Jackbolts
3 Hardened washer

Dimensions for SB8 (bolt-style tensioners) and SB12 (high strength bolt-style tensioners) are available on pages 18 & 19.

Flexnuts for through hole applications

For through hole applications we have developed the
Superbolt Flexnut, which is a reactive nut that is able to flex
elastically. Putting a Flexnut gives the same advantages as the
MJT on the reactive side. Under load they flex at the bottom
and at the top. This helps relieve stress concentrations and
increases the fatigue life of the stud/bolt. Since Flexnuts are
reactive nuts to be used opposite our tensioners, they are
never torqued directly to achieve preload.
Advantages with Superbolt Flexnuts:
Under load they ensure an equal load distribution
on the thread of the bolt / stud.
Adds elasticity in the joint.
Increases the fatigue life of the bolt / stud.

Even load

Reduced stress concentrations

in the first few threads.
Angled face of nut flattens
out after tightening.

Dimension lists for SX8 and SX12 (high strength) are available on pages 20 & 21.
Note:

- Maximum values valid for permanent bolting applications, including reaction forces.
- Other sizes, thread pitches or threads per inch (TPI) may be available. Please contact your local Nord-Lock office.
- Dimensions listed are representative. Typical manufacturing tolerances apply (approximately within 1mm or 1%).

Joint design and installation information

Stud bolts
Superbolt nut-style tensioners
used on studs into blind
tapped holes. Tightening in
pure tension means studs
will not gall in the tapped
hole and can be easily
removed.

Through holes
Common application of double
ended studs use Superbolt nutstyle tensioners and a reaction
nut (Flexnut) on the other end.
Flexnuts add elasticity to the
stud, increasing the fatigue life.

Tapped holes
Superbolt bolt-style tensioners
are often used into blind
tapped holes. MJT bolt heads
are more compact and fit
into tighter areas, additionally
they also reduce the number
of parts.

Counter bores
Superbolt bolt-style tensioners
can be provided to fit completely
into small counterbores. An
internal installation removal
hex allows for easy turning into
position.

Accessories & consumables

Installation and removal can be improved with Superbolt
quality accessories and consumables. They enhance
product installation and removal, thereby protecting your
investment in safe bolted connections. We can provide:
Lubricants
Protective caps
Sockets
Torque wrenches
Pneumatic wrenches
The use of non-original parts can reduce the function
of Superbolt tensioners considerably and can potentially
cause direct as well as indirect damage.

Helpful tips
Important considerations when applying Superbolt multi-jackbolt tensioners for various field application scenarios.

Centering of washer on thread

Make sure the washer is not resting
on one side of undercuts or radius of
mating studs.

Material with low strength

A thicker / larger washer or
an additional washer may be
necessary when materials with low
strength are used on the joint.

Large or slotted holes

An additional washer or a large
washer is necessary to transfer the
bolt load to a supported surface.

Space requirements
Check for space restrictions for socket
and wrench combination.

Tensioner at the end of stud

An additional distance spacer may
be necessary to bring tensioner
closer to the end of the stud for
proper socket fit.

Very long through stud

A special tensioner with a
larger circle of jackbolts may be
necessary to properly access the
jackbolts for tightening.

If your application corresponds to one or more of the above mentioned design criteria, contact your local Nord-Lock office and
we will help you find the best solution.

Our engineers can solve your bolting challenges

Gas Compression

Presses

Applications include: Crosshead jamnuts, counterweight crosshead jamnuts, couplings, connecting rod nuts, distance pieces, end
plates, compressor cylinders, doghouse bolting, piston end nuts, valve jackbolts and more.

Applications include: Press columns, tie rods, bearing blocks, high pressure piping, die cushions, cylinder ram bolting, anchorbolts
and more.

As seen on this reciprocating compressor

distance piece, our products can be retrofitted
in many limited space applications. High torque
requirements can now be achieved with small
hand held tools.

Multi-jackbolt tensioners make the installation of

pistons easier. Only hand tools are required for
installation and removal, and the reliability of this
labyrinth-Piston compressor is greatly increased
over many years of usage.

Fiftytwo 2 (50,8 mm) tensioners on this centrifugal

compressor were tightened by two men in 2-1/2
hours. The old method required three men
working an eight hour shift.

The world largest bolt-style multi-jackbolt

tensioner 28 diameter x 40 long (711,2 mm
diameter and 12,2 m long). This was used on a
large hydraulic forging press.

Eight Superbolt column nuts required only 12

man hours for installation vs. 2-1/2 full days for
heating of columns.

Split-Nut thrust collars are a custom designed

product from Superbolt that are much easier to
install and remove than other large threaded
fasteners on large press columns.

Oil, Gas & Petrochemical

Power Generation

Applications include: Top drives, flame towers, blow out preventors, mud pumps, fracturing pumps, reactor covers, heat exchanger
heads, turbine control valves, turbine joints, pipe flanges, anchorbolts, couplings and more.

Applications include: Turbine couplings, stay rods, manway doors, inlet flanges, boiler circ pump main flange, boiler feed pump head
and barrel casing, blade bolts, turbine wheel to shaft bolting, pelton turbine nozzels, servo piston nuts, bearing housings and more.

With a 2,500 horsepower rating, and 273,000

lb (1215 kN) rod load, this Weir SPM Destiny
Fracturing Pump utilizes Superbolt tensioners to
make bolting safer and easier in the field, as only
hand tools are needed.

A special multi-jackbolt tensioner series has been

developed for the unique needs of the Oil & Gas
industry. The washer is captive to the nut body
to prevent loss of the washer, and it features
corrosion protection to address the harsh
conditions. Used here on a riser clamp.

Large methanol reactor with 11 (279,4 mm)

studs. Six hours with Superbolt vs. two days with
Hydraulic Tensioners.

Flange coupling of the gear box on a wind

turbine. An expansion bolt with integrated
Superbolt technology is used to transmit the
enormous torque. The solution is also compact
and does not add a lot of weight, which was a
requirement.

Superbolt expansion bolts are ideally suited for

shaft couplings, as seen here on this Francis type
pump/generator shaft coupling at a pumpedstorage facility.

With Superbolt tensioners, joints in awkward

positions in confined spaces can be tightened.
This Francis wheel has regular maintenance
requirements which became managable with
MJTs connecting the wheel to the shaft.

Mining

Steel Mills

Applications include: Boom points, ring gears, side frames, hoist motors and pedestal tie-downs, draglines, pinion gears, hoist
and drag drums, split gears, bolted segments, excavator bearing caps and more.

Applications include: Thrust collars, coupling bolts, tie rod nuts, anchor bolts, mill motors, bearings, shaft mounts, roll tables, BOF and EAF
applications, coilers, hydraulic cylinders, cranes, slitter knives, universal joints, back-up roll bearings, work roll bearings, pipe mills and more.

The bolting challenges on this crusher included

limited space and extreme working conditions.
Multi-jackbolt tensioners proved to be the ideal
solution. Only 43 lbft (58 Nm) of torque on the
jackbolts was needed, the equivalent torque on
the standard bolt is 2,150 lbft (2915 Nm). The
use of a small 3/8drive hand held torque wrench
was much safer and more accurate than previous
bolting methods.

24

Large power shovels have many critical bolting

applications. Multi-jackbolt tensioners are used
extensively on these machines, all over the world.
Seen above, MT tensioners on a ring gear.

On these hoist & drag drums, the high preload

of 428,400 lbf (1906 kN) was achieved with
only 233 lbft (316 Nm) of torque required on
each jackbolt. The added flex from the Superbolt
tensioners more than doubled the elasticity of the
bolted connection.

Thrust collars on bearing chocks create higher

preloads than the previous method and therefore
even the heaviest peakloads can be absorbed.
The roll necks are lasting and the production runs
smoothly.

Superbolt mill motor nuts are special jamnuts

designed to fasten brake wheels, couplings,
and pulleys to mill motors. They are directly
interchangeable with nuts supplied by the motor
manufacturers.

EAF electrode arm assembly. With the MJT, a high

clamp load could be achieved to withstand the
extreme vibration acting on the electrode arm.

Your partner in bolting solutions

Other technologies
The Nord-Lock Group product offering consists of several technologies, all developed and designed in-house.
Expansion bolts
Utilizing Superbolt technology, Nord-Lock is able to offer tremendous
radial expansion and joint clamping power in one bolting system.
The expansion bolts replace traditional interference or force fit bolts.
Radial expansion is critical for rotating couplings or alignment systems
that require the bolts to be able to handle transfer of forces in shear.
The key to this technology is the split expansion sleeve that mates
with the customers machine holes, along with an internal taper
that accepts a mating tapered stud. The split sleeve allows larger
tolerances on mating parts than is traditionally required with
interference fit or hydraulic systems, saving critical machining time.
