1.1This specification covers the requirements for compressible-washer-type direct tension indicators capable of indicating the achievement of a specified minimum bolt tension in a structural bolt.
1.2Two types of direct tension indicators in nominal diameter sizes M16 through M36 are covered:
1.2.1Type 8.8—direct tension indicators for use with Specification A325M bolts, and
1.2.2Type 10.9—direct tension indicators for use with Specification A490M bolts.
1.3Direct tension indicators are intended for installation under either a bolt head or a hardened washer. (See Research Council on Structural Connections: Specification for Structural Joints Using ASTM A325 or A490 Bolts.)
1.4The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.5The following precautionary statement pertains only to the test methods portions, Section 12, and Appendix X1 of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
