DIN 261 Hammerhead T Bolts for Largest Multimetal Recycling Plant in the USA
Brooks Forgings is a UK-based specialist in the manufacture of hot-forged hammerhead T-bolts. With an extensive range of in-house tooling, we are able to produce various standards including DIN 7992, DIN 261, and SN425.
Our capabilities include producing T-bolts up to M100 in diameter and lengths of up to 6 metres.
We were recently approached for a new project based in the United States, requiring the manufacture of custom hammerhead T-bolts to meet precise specifications.
The end client is a global leader in metal concentrate processing and recycling, with operations in more than 20 countries. Their upcoming facility in Richmond, Virginia, will become the largest multimetal recycling plant in the US and the first to operate a secondary smelter specifically designed for multimetal recycling applications.
As part of the facility’s production line installation, we were commissioned to manufacture several sizes of DIN 261 hammerhead T-bolts in a range of lengths:
-
M48 x 1422mm (T385) – DIN 261 – 50 pcs
-
M48 x 1422mm (T500) – DIN 261 – 40 pcs
-
M36 x 1422mm (T385) – DIN 261 – 52 pcs
-
M36 x 1215mm (T500) – DIN 261 – 20 pcs
-
M36 x 1194mm (T385) – DIN 261 – 14 pcs
All bolts were produced in 070M20 grade steel, hot-forged and finished with a protective galvanised coating. For secure transit, they were packed into custom-built, pressure-treated wooden crates fully compliant with ISPM15 export regulations.
This project further reinforces Brooks Forgings’ position as a trusted supplier of high-integrity forged components for industrial applications around the world.
