Bolt,
Nut and Washer Lot Traceability begins when the material
arrives at the factory. Material is sample tested upon arrival
to verify the Mill Certification.
Prior to the start of manufacturing,
a traceable "ID CODE" is assigned for specific lots
of material that will be used to produce the bolt, nut and
washer assembly. Heat Code information is kept with the products
throughout the manufacturing process.
At the start of manufacturing,
the assigned "ID CODE" is stamped on the head of
every SmartHex bolt. This code can then be traced back
to the actual heat lot of material used for manufacturing.
When
a heat lot of material is depleted, or different processing
is used, the "ID CODE" is retired and a new "ID
CODE" is established for the next production run.
