FAQs for F1554 Grade 36 Anchor Bolts

Yes, per ASTM Section 6.4, a weldable Grade 55 (S1) may be furnished at the manufacturer’s option when Grade 36 is specified. This often helps reduce lead times. However, we always recommend consulting with your Engineer of Record to ensure that higher yield strength does not impact the structural design

F1554 Grade 36 is a low-carbon, mild steel anchor bolt for securing structures to concrete foundations. It is equivalent to ASTM A36 but specifically designed for construction anchoring applications.

F1554 Grade 36 has a minimum yield strength of 36 ksi (248 MPa) and a tensile strength of 58-80 ksi (400-552 MPa). While it is the lowest strength option in the F1554 series, it provides flexibility and weldability, making it ideal for general-purpose anchoring.

The recommended hardware includes:

  • Nuts: A563A Hex Nuts or Heavy Hex Nuts (plain or galvanized)

  • Washers: USS, SAE, or F436 washers for proper load distribution
