ASTM A325 / A325M Heavy Hex Structural Bolts
The bolts are intended for use in structural connections. These connections are covered under the requirements of the Specification for Structural Joints Using ASTM A325 Bolts, approved by the Research Council on Structural Connections, endorsed by the American Institute of Steel Construction and by the Industrial Fastener Institute.

In 2016, ASTM A325 was officially withdrawn and replaced by ASTM F3125, in which A325 now becomes a grade under the F3125 specification. The F3125 specification is a consolidation and replacement of six ASTM standards, including; A325, A325M, A490, A490M, F1852, and F2280.
Prior to its withdrawl in 2016, the ASTM A325 specification covered high strength heavy hex structural bolts from 1/2″ diameter through 1-1/2″ diameter. These bolts are intended for use in structural connections and therefore have shorter thread lengths than standard hex bolts.
This specification is applicable to heavy hex structural bolts only. For bolts of other configurations and thread lengths with similar mechanical properties, see Specification A449.
Bolts for general applications, including anchor bolts, are covered by Specification A449. Also refer to Specification A449 for quenched and tempered steel bolts and studs with diameters greater than 1-1/2″ but with similar mechanical properties.
ASTM A325
Scope The ASTM A325 specification covers high strength heavy hex structural bolts from ½” diameter through 1-1/2” diameter. These bolts are intended for use in structural connections and therefore have shorter thread lengths than standard hex bolts. Refer to the Structural Bolts page of our site for thread lengths and other related dimensions. This specification is applicable to heavy hex structural bolts only. For bolts of other configurations and thread lengths with similar mechanical properties, see Specification A 449. Bolts for general applications, including anchor bolts, are covered by Specification A 449. Also refer to Specification A 449 for quenched and tempered steel bolts and studs with diameters greater than 1-1/2"" but with similar mechanical properties.| TYPE 1 | Medium carbon, carbon boron, or medium carbon alloy steel. |
| TYPE 2 | Withdrawn November 1991. |
| TYPE 3 | Weathering steel. |
| T | Fully threaded A325. (Restricted to 4 times the diameter in length) |
| M | Metric A325. |
| SC | Slip critical connection. |

Oxigin has been making waves on the German VIP scene since 2001 with its range of single and multi-piece alloy wheels. What’s more you can now get hold of them right here in the UK.
Manufactured in Germany, Oxigin’s exclusive, high-quality wheels reduce weight and improve performance. They also transform the look of any vehicle in a second.
Arriving with a bang, Oxigin’s range of rolling stock is sure to tick the wish lists of even the most discerning wheel nut. Available from 17-22″, Oxigin specialise in low-weight performance orientated alloys (from 7kg) in addition to a vast collection of classic, unique and flamboyant styles for a multitude of car applications.
Each and every wheel is available in a combination of finishes from black and white to gun-metal and chrome. The firm even offer an exclusive colour-coding programme for its range of three-piece alloys; all you need do is provide a paint code.
Thanks to patented Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) technology, Oxigin wheels have a clear acrylic powder coating more than double the thickness of wet coated rims. That means you can be sure your wheels will cope in all weather conditions and continue to look as good as they did the day you bought them.
