Portland Bolt Contributions
We worked with this client to determine which configuration of tie rod assembly would fit their vision and structural needs for their future home. Portland Bolt provided 6 tie rod assemblies complete with the rods, clevises, and connecting plates. Our Tie Rod Calculator can determine the correct rod length(s) from an overall pin-to-pin dimension.
Manufacturing Process
Once we are given the required dimensions and have processed the order, Portland Bolt begins the manufacturing process. Our 137,0000-square-foot manufacturing facility, which includes an in-house hot-dip galvanizing line, is capable of producing tie rods in virtually any diameter, grade, length, configuration, and finish.
The rods are first cut to length, threaded, and chamfered. Both left-hand and right-hand threads are integrated into a tie rod assembly in order to tighten the assembly once it has been installed. The plates were custom-made to fit the exact dimensions required for this job.
The client chose to have a plain, or black, finish for aesthetic reasons. The clevises are assembled to the rods before shipping to ensure proper fit.
