Do you know any specifications or standard explain it
Thanks a lot

It's the manufacturer's ID mark.

The controlling standard is ASTM A193.
 
bolt manufacturer identification markings
Put this into your search engine and you can identify the manufacture.

I asked question from artificial intelligence and it says
" In the context of **B7** material (which is a type of alloy steel commonly used for stud bolts and similar fasteners), **TS** typically stands for **Tensile Strength**.

So, **TS before B7** generally refers to the **Tensile Strength** of B7 material, often specified in units such as MPa (megapascals) or ksi (kips per square inch). It indicates the maximum stress that the B7 material can withstand while being subjected to a pulling force before failure.

### To summarize:
- **TS** = **Tensile Strength**
- **B7** = A grade of alloy steel (often ASTM A193 B7, which is a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel).

### Example:
If you see a specification like **TS B7 = 105 ksi**, it means the tensile strength of B7 material is 105 ksi.

**Note:** Always consult specific standards or manufacturer details for precise values and interpretations. "
Another one says it's related to technical specification
Can you explain about your idea how can I identify manufacturer with TS
Thanks
 
AI is incorrect in this case.

TS is likely Yin Shin Hardware Industry Co., Ltd, of Taiwan.
 
I search "ts b7 stud bolt" but search engine show several suand can't find special manufacturer
 
Are you in China? Search engines may be restricted in that case. As for the "Tensile Strength" you saw in AI, this is a great illustration of why you should not believe everything it comes up with. Know that quality dictates every fastener manufacturer put their mark on the head.
 
I've had a few experiences similar to MintJulep in Post 5.

Most recently when looking for a chart of tap drills for varying % thread when tapping an 8-32 hole in a nasty material.
AI was all hung up on thread engagement and could not be convinced otherwise.

Attached is one man's opinion of AI
