IN THE NEWSSmart Bolts are referred to an advanced form of threaded fasteners with a technology to indicate the total amount of tension that is applied to the bolt. These bolts are extremely useful for engineering structures where a correct amount of tension is required for the proper alignment of the structure. Smart bolts are also known as tension indicating fasteners and are available in various shapes, sizes and forms. Smart bolts are used for the assembly of two unthreaded components, known as a bolted joint.
The global smart bolts market is thriving on the back of growing need for technological advances in engineering solutions and the rising applications of bolts observed around the globe. Bolts serve a varied range of purposes in engineering science. Bolts are the most reliable form of fasteners and are simple to install and uninstall. Engineers prefer bolted joints for applications where frequent repairing service is required. Moreover, bolts can withstand high loads and in case they become loose over the time, the bolts can be tightened to retain their original strength. Additionally, depending upon the application of bolts, most industries use bolts made up of varied materials, such as steel, aluminum, plastic and others. As a result, these materials are strong, long lasting and resistant to corrosion. Bolts are also 100% recyclable and do not require any special heat treatment during installation or removal. Owing to such properties, bolts are a preferred choice amongst engineers. Furthermore, growing imports and exports of threaded bolts around the globe is also anticipated to promote towards the growth of the global smart bolts market. According to International Trade Centre (ITC), exports of threaded screws and bolts in the world increased from USD 13,816 Mn in the year 2010 to USD 20,289 Mn in the year 2018, and imports increased from USD 14,767 Mn in the year 2010 to USD 20,157 Mn in the year 2018.
The global smart bolts market is anticipated to record a robust CAGR throughout the forecast period, i.e. 2020-2028. The market is segmented by build material into nickel alloy, stainless steel, alloy steel, duplex steel, copper, aluminum and others, out of which, stainless steel segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share on the back of several beneficial characteristics of stainless steel fasteners, such as, resistance to corrosion, provides savings in the long term, low maintenance as well as high strength of the alloy. Moreover, stainless steel fasteners possess an exceptional life cycle, are environment friendly and also 100% recyclable, and thus a preferred choice amongst the engineers.

Engineers have been utilizing fasteners in engineering structures since a longer period owing to numerous benefits associated with these fasteners. It is through the help of these fasteners only that engineers could assemble and de-assemble complex designs & structures and deploy across areas where large structures would not had been possible to carry. Hence it has been proved over the years how reliable the fasteners and the strength it provides to a structure. But over the years, upon repetitive wear and tear, there is a need for the replacement of the old fasteners for the protection of the engineered structures. The rising need for the replacement of old fasteners amongst engineers is thereby anticipated to drive the growth of the global smart bolts market.
Fasteners are used to join two non-threaded structures. They are also known to carry large amount of loads due to its structure. As a result, it is very important to understand how much amount of torque needs to be applied while tightening a fastener. Lack of expertise in handling fasteners might lead to the breakage or stripping of the thread and thereby damaging the fastener. With the advent in bolt technology and the development of the concept of smart bolts, engineers can now understand the amount of torque needed to tighten a fastener, thereby lowering the chances of damaging a fastener. The rising concern for applying over-torque on fasteners and the need to prevent such issues is thereby anticipated to drive the growth of the global smart bolts market.
Many engineers around the globe are yet unaware about the benefits associated with the application of smart bolts. Few more lack knowledge on the application of these type of bolts. Additionally, high end-product cost might restrict the sales of smart bolts. Such factors are anticipated to act as a barrier to the growth of the global smart bolts market.
Our in-depth analysis of the global smart bolts market includes the following segments:
On the basis of regional analysis, the global smart bolts market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region.
