ASTM F1554 Integration:
 
ASTM F1554 is an anchor bolt specification developed by the American Society for Testing and Materials. It covers a wide range of anchor bolts and fully threaded rod. This specification replaces ASTM A307 Grade C and is commonly used in construction projects, including commercial developments, structural supports, and residential applications. Some examples of F1554 usage include freeway signs, streetlights, traffic signals, and large building columns.
 
*** Please note that according to ASTM F1554-15, when Grade 36 is specified, a weldable Grade 55 may be furnished in its place at the supplier’s option. However, for the specific substitution of F1554 Grade A55 for Grade A36, it is important to consult with the Engineer of Record for approval. This substitution of weldable Grade 55 for Grade 36 is the only substitution of a higher strength bolt for a lower strength bolt that ASTM allows within the context of their fastener specifications. Trio Fasteners may choose to substitute A55 for A36 in cases when it will save the customer time and/or money.  WE WILL ONLY DO THIS WITH THE CUSTOMER’S DIRECT APPROVAL. ***
