Hight Strength Clevis
Hight Strength Clevis
(OP)
I had to go to a high strength rod on a tension connection (A572 Grade 50) and now I'm having problems getting my clevis to work based on the Table 15-3 AISC clevis load values. Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes compatible high strength clevis'? I don't want to have this 2" rod tie into a number 7 clevis that weighs 53lbs.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.






RE: Hight Strength Clevis
You really didn’t give too much useful info. in describing your problem. All I could guess would be 50ksi in a 2" dia. rod, and something less than that depending on your thread selection. I don’t see any AISC clevis #7 weighting 53lbs. But, clevises and turnbuckles usually have a higher factor or safety than we work to for other structural elements, and you have to work this out in your design. Google “High strength clevis,” and talk to a few manufacturers.
