L9 System Hardness Specifications:
A high strength system of highengineered components

The L9 Fastening System is designed
for use in high stress, severe service
e n v i r o n m e n t s . T h e h i g h e s t m e c h a n cal strength off-the-shelf fastening system
available, its special features control torquetension characteristics to develop high clamp
loads when using properly controlled tightening methods. Reliant Bolt manufacturers L9
Bolts from AISI alloy steels.
1).
Thicker than standard bolt head

adds wrenching surface.
2).
Washer face eliminates corner drag.
3).
Radius under bolt head adds strength.
4).
Countersunk washer ID centers the washer against the bolt
head bearing surface during tightening.
5).
UNR radiused root bolt thread increases fatigue

resistance by reducing the notch effect of

conventional UN threads. The UNR thread radius is

maintained into the thread runout at the junction of

thread to shank
6).
Smooth washer bearing surfaces distribute loads

uniformly and reduce brinneling. Plated finish assists

torquing
7).
Chamfers eliminate corner drag
8).
Thicker than standard nut side walls facilitate

wrenching. Heat treating helps prevent spilling and

stripping
9).

USER CAUTIONS
Avoid fastener, and possible joint failure; by

observing the following:
1).Do not substitute components in the L9 Fastening System. Non L9 components may not meet the
systems requirements. Reliant Bolt is not responsible for any failures in the use of the L9 fastening
system if substitutions are made of any component or
finish of the system (i.e. bolt, nut, locknut or washer).
2).Do not alter the coatings as this can result in erratic
and unpredictable clamp loads. Do not use supplementary lubricants.
3).Do not use the L9 system in service environments
exceeding 400 F. Any cadmium or zinc plated product
is subject to degradation of corrosion resistance and
possible liquid metal embrittlement at temperatures
exceeding 400F.
4).Discuss the use of L9 bolts and washers in tapped
holes, with Reliant bolts engineering staff to establish
correct tightening torques and methods. Excessive or
insufficient clamp loads can cause major problems.
5).When tightening L9 bolts, use the recommended
torque values. The self lubricating features of the system reduce required torques so that
in some instances they are below those needed to
tighten Grade 8 bolts.

User Specifications - L9 Fastening System

The table below lists by size the Tensile Strength, Proof Loads and Clamp Loads appropriate for
use with the L9 Fastening System. Recommended torque values to achieve the recommended
clamp loads are also shown, for applying torque to the bolt head or to the nut. Notes below show
how the loads are calculated. Refer to User Cautions prior to installation of L9 fasteners.
Dimensional Specifications - L9 Fastening System

Dimensions show below apply to L9 Fastening System components. Dimensions shown are
the same for both UNRC Unified National Coarse and UNRF Unified National Fine thread products. Washers are the same for both thread types.
