Minimum t-bolt overhang
According to AISC Steel Construction Manual, 13th Edition,
Section 14-10: “Adequate thread engagement for anchor rods is
identical to the condition described in the RCSC Specification
as adequate for steel to steel structural joints using high
strength bolts: having the end of the [anchor rod] flush with or
outside the face of the nut”.
There is no maximum thread protrusion limitation from the
standpoint of the function of the bolt.
If needed, the excess at the end of the bolt can be cut-off. The
nut shall be fully engaged. The outside face of the head of the
t-bolt has special markings to identify the t-bolt type and proper
head orientation of the t-bolt. If the t-bolt is to be cut or grind,
inspect and ensure the orientation and t-bolt type is as specified
prior to any work on the t-bolt. If the marking on the t-bolt are
removed, proper inspection is not possible. Proper corrosion
protection shall be required.
Onsite adjustability
Serrations of channel lip allow incremental
longitudinal displacement of 1/8” (3 mm). If the
bracket needs to be slightly adjusted, while a
force is applied (i.e. hung panel), the HBC-T will not slide. The
HBC-T need not to be loaded in order to reposition the bracket.
Therefore, it is not acceptable to adjust the location of the
t-bolts via hammering of the bracket, if the weight of the panel is
applied on the bracket

1 Installation type A: The fixture is in contact with the channel profile and the concrete surface
2 Installation type B: The fixture is fastened to the anchor channel by suitable steel part (e.g. square plate washer), fixture is in contact with the channel profile only
Hexagonal head nut
Anchor channel systems consist of a group of anchors, channel
profile, and matching t-bolt. The t-bolt hardware consists of a
hex head nut and a flat washer.

Different surfaces and materials might have a significant
influence on the ratio between torque moment and pre-tension.
Therefore, it is important to use the washer as per product
approval or recommended by Hilti.
