EVALUATION SUBJECT:

HILTI LOW-VELOCITY X-U AND X-U 15 UNIVERSAL

FASTENERS AND X-P CONCRETE FASTENERS

1.0 EVALUATION SCOPE

Compliance with the following codes:

 2018, 2015, and 2012 International Building Code

(IBC)

 2018, 2015, and 2012 International Residential Code

(IRC)

For evaluation for compliance with codes adopted by the

Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS),

see ESR-2269 LABC and LARC Supplement.

Property evaluated:

Structural

2.0 USES

2.1 General:

The Hilti X-U and X-P power-actuated fasteners (PAFs) are

used to attach wood, light gage steel, and other building

elements to base materials of normalweight concrete, sand-

lightweight concrete, steel deck panels with sand-

lightweight concrete fill and concrete masonry. The X-U

fasteners are also used to attach building elements to steel

base materials. The Hilti X-U 15 fasteners are used to attach

light gage steel and other building elements to steel base

material. The fasteners are alternatives to the cast-in-place

anchors described in IBC Section 1901.3 (2012 IBC Section

1908; 2009 IBC Section 1911) for placement in concrete;

the embedded anchors described in Section 8.1.3 of TMS

402, referenced in Section 2107 of the IBC (Section 2.1.4 of

TMS 402-11 and -08 referenced in Section 2107 of the 2012

and 2009 IBC, respectively), for placement in masonry; and

the welds and bolts used to attach materials to steel,

described in IBC Sections 2204.1 and 2204.2, respectively.

For structures regulated under the IRC, the fasteners may

be used where an engineered design is submitted in

accordance with IRC Section R301.1.3.

2.2 Horizontal Diaphragms:

The Hilti X-U fasteners may be used as alternates to 10d

common nails for fastening wood structural panels to

structural steel members in horizontal diaphragms.

3.0 DESCRIPTION

3.1 Fasteners:

3.1.1 X-U: The X-U fasteners are powder-driven fasteners

made from hardened steel complying with the

manufacturer’s quality documentation, austempered to a

Rockwell C nominal hardness of 57.5 and zinc-plated in

accordance with ASTM B633 SC 1, Type III. The fasteners

have a shank diameter of 0.157 inch (4.0 mm), a head

diameter of 0.32 inch (8.2 mm) and a knurled tip, and come

in lengths ranging from 0.63 inch to 2.83 inches

(16 to 72 mm). See Figure 1 for the fastener configuration.

3.1.2 X-U 15: The X-U 15 fasteners are powder-driven

fasteners made from hardened steel complying with the

manufacturer’s quality documentation, austempered to a

Rockwell C nominal hardness of 59 and zinc plated in

accordance with ASTM B633 SC 1, Type III. The fasteners

have a shank diameter of 0.145 inch (3.7 mm), a head

diameter of 0.32 inch (8.2 mm) and a shank length of

0.63 inch (16 mm). See Figure 2 for the fastener

configuration.

3.1.3 X-P: The X-P fasteners are powder-driven fasteners

made from hardened steel complying with the

manufacturer’s quality documentation, austempered to a

Rockwell C nominal hardness of 59 and zinc plated in

accordance with ASTM B633 SC 1, Type III. The fasteners

have a shank diameter of 0.157 inch (4.0 mm), a head

diameter of 0.32 inch (8.2 mm) and come in lengths ranging

from 0.87 inch to 1.57 inches (22 to 40 mm). See Figure 3

for the fastener configuration.

3.2 Substrate Materials:

3.2.1 Concrete: Normal-weight and sand-lightweight

concrete must comply with IBC Chapter 19 or IRC Section

R402.2, as applicable. The minimum concrete compressive

strength at the time of fastener installation must be as noted

in the applicable allowable load table. Hollow core precast

concrete slabs must conform to the cross-sectional

dimensions shown in Figure 7.
