Installation Typicals - Fastening on Steel Threaded Studs

Application
Fastening of junction boxes, switches on a vertical structure
Element is fastened by X-BT-MR
Boundary conditions
These values are ONLY reflecting capacity of X-BT-MR threaded stud.
Structural analysis of support / structure is NOT in Hilti scope. See the detailed
statements in disclaimer — 2018/05/04
Technical data are based on technical data binder for X-BT-MR (06 / 2018),
always refer to latest technical data binder for X-BT-MR
Conditions for recommended loads
Global factor of safety for static pull-out > 3 (based on 5% fractile value),
≥ 5 (based on mean value)
Minimum edge distance = 6 mm [¼"]
Effect of base metal vibration and stress considered
Redundancy (multiple fastening) must be provided
Recommended loads in the table refer to the resistance of the individual
fastening and may not be the same as the loads F
N
and F
V
acting on the
fastened part
Note: if relevant, prying forces need to be considered in design, see example.
Moment acting on fastener shank only in case of a gap between base and
fastened material.
