Bolt Types Explained: Which One Is Right for Your Next Project?

Bolts are one of the most critical components in engineering, construction, and various other industries. Whether you're working on a small home improvement project or a large-scale industrial job, choosing the right bolt is essential for ensuring the safety, stability, and longevity of your project. Each bolt type serves a unique purpose, and understanding their distinctions can make all the difference in your project’s success. In this guide, we’ll explore the different types of bolts and help you determine which one is right for your next project.

The Structure of a Bolt

Before diving into specific bolt types, it’s important to understand the basic anatomy of a bolt. Every bolt consists of three key components: the head, the shank, and the thread.

Head: The part of the bolt that allows a tool to apply torque. Common head types include hex, round, and flat heads.

Shank: The unthreaded section of the bolt that provides the necessary length for the bolt to hold objects together.

Thread: The spiral grooves that allow the bolt to be screwed into a nut or pre-threaded hole.

These components work together to provide the mechanical force needed to secure objects, and the variation in their design allows bolts to be specialized for different applications.

Common Bolt Types and Their Uses

Hex Bolts

Hex bolts are among the most versatile and widely used bolts in construction and machinery. They are recognized by their hexagonal heads and are commonly used for fastening wood and metal. Their versatility makes them a go-to choice for many builders and engineers.

Carriage Bolts

Carriage bolts feature a smooth, rounded head, making them ideal for applications where aesthetics and safety are important, such as in furniture construction. The square section underneath the head prevents the bolt from rotating as the nut is tightened.

Lag Bolts

Lag bolts are heavy-duty fasteners, typically used in wood applications. Their large size and coarse threads make them ideal for projects requiring a strong hold, such as securing beams or posts in construction projects.

Anchor Bolts

Used to attach objects or structures to concrete, anchor bolts are critical in securing foundations. They are often used in applications like building bridges or mounting heavy equipment to concrete floors.

Eye Bolts

Eye bolts feature a looped head, making them perfect for lifting and rigging tasks. These bolts are often used in marine and construction applications where securing ropes or chains is necessary.

Specialty Bolts for Unique Applications

When it comes to unique and highly specialized applications, the standard bolt types often don't cut it. Specialty bolts are designed to meet specific challenges, offering enhanced performance, durability, or functionality in specialized conditions. Let's explore some of the most common specialty bolts and their uses.

Flange Bolts

Flange bolts come with a built-in washer-like flange at the base of the head. This feature helps distribute the pressure of the bolt over a larger surface area, reducing the likelihood of damage to the material being fastened. Flange bolts are particularly useful in automotive and machinery applications where vibration and movement can loosen standard bolts over time. The flange provides a more secure grip, helping to prevent loosening in high-stress environments.

J-Bolts

Named after their characteristic "J" shape, J-bolts are designed to be embedded in concrete or other materials to secure objects in place. Their hooked end makes them ideal for structural applications, such as anchoring walls, columns, and other large structures to their foundations. J-bolts are commonly used in the construction of bridges, buildings, and large-scale infrastructure projects.

U-Bolts

U-bolts are shaped like the letter "U" and are primarily used to hold pipes, tubes, or other cylindrical objects in place. These bolts are particularly useful in plumbing, automotive, and HVAC systems, where they are used to secure pipes to ceilings, walls, or other surfaces. U-bolts can also be found in marine applications, securing boat masts or other cylindrical components.

Phylax Ch.2 Southern Voice

Having everyone together at Stark tower was great but Bennett had been enjoying the peace. The two days alone at the tower were apparently the calm before the storm that was about to become her life. When Bennett had gone to get Tony for a morning workout the first day they were all back she heard raised voices. Pepper and Tony were at each other's throats again. And the last thing she wanted was to get drawn into the middle of it.

“Hey Hap, you probably don’t wanna go that way, Mom and Dad are fighting,” he spun on his heel matching pace with the bodyguard.

“So how was your weekend?” He asked politely. “Meet anyone new at the club?”

“It was good and yeah.”

He looked to her for more details. “Oh yeah? Tell me about her.” Happy nudged her shoulder. 

“Her name is Mariam. Beautiful and she knows it. Jet black hair, deep brown eyes, nice tan. Works for Advanced Idea Mechanics.” She shrugged. 

“AIM is still in business?” 

She stopped to look at Happy. “Yeah. It was Atheon that was shut down. AIM is still up and running. Quickly becoming as big a pain as Hammer.”

“You think she wanted inside information on Tony?”

“Don’t know. She said no but…”

“Bennett,” JARVIS’s voice rang through the intercom, “Mr. Stark would like to see you in the lab.”

“Are he and Pepper done talking?” She asked the A.I. skeptically. 

“Yes, Ma’am,” he replied.

“Ok, cool, tell him I am on my way. Catch you later, Hap.” She made her way down to Tony and the lab. “Hey Boss, what’s up?”

“Ah, Benn, perfect,” he ushered the blonde over to the table.  “Look,” he pulled over a small case, “at these.”

He flipped the clasp on the wooden case and opened the lid. Inside lay two crimson leather cuffs with bronze decorative chains and rivets. Between them lay a bronze chain, with a pendant. The pendant was a helmet and spear the feather of the helmet in ruby. All symbols of Athena, the helmet and spear, wisdom and strategy as keys to victory, ruby, immortality. On closer inspection the cuffs were covered in symbols of the gods too. The heads of the rivets had lighting bolts, tridents, swans, a bow and arrows, one even had a cerberus . “Wow, Boss,” the blonde looked them over “when did you become so obsessed with Greek mythology. I mean the stories are cool but…”

He gave her a playful shove and she laughed. “Try it on,” Tony took the necklace from the middle.

She reached for the first cuff and wrapped it around her left wrist buttoning it in place, then the same on the right. They were about two inches in width.  A perfect mix of leather and bronze. He slipped the necklace over her head. “Not bad, Boss. I’m not much for jewelry but I might can handle these.”

Tony’s grin was bright enough to light a skyscraper. “Touch the right cuff to your necklace then tap the cuffs together.”

 The blonde did as she was told. Nothing seemed to happen. She didn't feel any different. It was totally plausible Tony had been messing with her and the cuffs and necklace were purely cosmetic. 

Brushing her hair back, she felt the leather cuff slide. She flicked her wrist to make it slide back down but the leather clung to her arm. Looking back down at the cuffs they had changed. They looked more like bracers or gauntlets. They covered her hands and halfway up the fingers, they elongated sliding down her forearm. “Sweet!”

Tony laughed, “hold onto your hat, kid. J, can you show us a reflection?”

One wall became a real time feed of the room. Seeing the feed Bennett looked down again. She still saw her jeans and t-shirt but that was far from what she saw reflected on the wall. She was dressed in boots that lace half way up her calf, a pair of pants tucked into the top. A loose, long sleeve shirt and over that was a long vest with a hood and mask. The pendant now appeared to be engraved into the leather of the vest. The most impressive thing was the material it was made from, it was ethereal. It seemed to shimmer.  The boots were black leather. The pants, and shirt looked to be more of a canvas type material, very rough, also in black. The vest and bracers were a deep crimson leather. The hood was red made of the same rough material, the mask was black made of a much softer fabric. Or it all appeared that way. She still distinctly felt her jeans and Converse. 

 “It’s a special kind of Nanobots I designed. They move individually to flow with your body and project the disguise. They function similar to chainmail and plate armor each piece able to link into the others. Individually they don’t do much for protection but all synced up they should be as effective as kevlar.” 

A dark mist seemed to seep from her. “What is all this for, Boss?”

“To give you a little extra safety if the worst should ever happen and Ironman needs back up. You will have some protection, a few extra tricks and anonymity. But only in extreme cases,” He said. “Plus it’s just cool. The symbol of Zeus tap it to the opposite palm."

The gloves seem to tingle, looking up she saw the reason as the gloves pulsed with blue arcs of electricity. She smirked. "Ironman better need help at least once."

Tony matched her smirk, "for emergencies only." 

She tapped the cuffs together then the symbol on her chest. The reflection showed that she was in her jeans and tee once again. "Thanks, boss." They shared a smile as she wrapped him in a hug.

"Happy birthday, Benn, sorry it's a bit late" he returned the hug, pressing a quick kiss to her hair. "Oh," he perked up, " I almost forgot." He went to a work table picking up what looked like a ring box. "Stand still." He pulled something from the box balancing it on the tip of his finger. He pressed the finger behind her left ear. 

"Ow", she muttered as it seemed to bite into the side of her skull. The pain only lasted a second. She looked up at Tony with a question on her lips.

"This is a new prototype I’ve been working on. It's a neurotransmitter. It connects directly to your brain with your own version of JARVIS. Your own personal A.I." He tapped a few buttons on a tablet and Bennett could hear a faint buzzing. "I will let you know when I have upgrades for the cuffs. Need the power of all the gods. There's a training program built into the A.I. shows you how to use it, so when you’re ready say 'Hey BOBbi.'" He walked out of the workshop. 

Bennett followed Tony's instructions. "Hey BOBbi."

"Initializing program,"a voice whispered in her ear, followed by the sounds of an old computer start screen. "Welcome, Kid. Beginning neuro-link." She heard a high pitched ring and more "dial up" noises. "Neuro-link established. From this point on you will be able to activate all B.O.B. programs by thought." 

What?

"I am here to assist Phylax in whatever you require," the voice had a slight echo as it bounced around Bennett's head. 

Phylax?

"Phylax is a term in ancient Greek that translates: watcher, sentinel, keeper, protector, guardian. Phylax is also the name of a statue at Benjamin and Marshall college located in Lancaster, PA. "

I am sure it's supposed to be a compliment from Tony. Goes with the Greek theme but can we just stick with Bennett for now maybe come back to Phylax?

"Very well, Kid." 

She rolled her eyes. So how does this work?

"I take in everything you take in through your senses to analyze your world. I can help you with everything from battle strategy to how to find the closest coffee shop. Run constant analysis of your health and a built in GPS. Incase of emergencies."

Ok. So you just butt in or do I have to activate you.

"Think my name anytime you need me."

BOBbi is an odd pick for Tony. Too tame. He always uses acronyms. So...

"It stands for  Bennett's Online Babysitter."

"Tony," Bennett yelled, running after the man. "Babysitter? Really?"

 Happy held up the boxing mitts for Tony. His jab was fast and he had a decent hook, but he was treating the pads as just that. Nothing more than a target. “Come on, Boss! Treat it like a real fight.” Bennett called from the side of the ring.

He continued to dance around, throwing punches even a blind man could see coming. “Alright, alright, stop. Happy you’re out.” the girl grabbed a pair of fingerless gloves and strapped them in place climbing into the ring. “Let’s go, Boss.” She pulled up her guard. “I want you to try that sweep we were working on.”

She immediately attacked. Jab, uppercut, overhand. Wheel kick, backfist, back hand ridge. Round house, spin sidekick. Tony stumbled back a few steps catching the sidekick on his ribs.

“Seriously, Kid?” He stepped up his game. Jab, jab, hook. She blocked them with ease. He followed up with a skip side kick, then a back knuckle. The skip side missed but she took the back knuckle to be able to get inside his guard. 

Once inside she drove two hooks and an uppercut into his gut before bouncing out the other side. 

Tony stood guard raised. They squared up again as Pepper entered the room calling “Tony, the notary’s here.” Another woman walked in behind her, a redhead Bennett didn't recognize. The woman was gorgeous. She took a second glance at the woman and that's when it happened. Smack! Her head hit the canvas hard. 

“Yes,” Tony pumped his fist in the air, “I got the sweep.”

Rubbing the back of her head she sat up. A smirk played at the corner of the stranger's lips. Bennett fought the rush of blood that threatened to flood her cheeks with a blush. Tony was going to pay for that. 

He held his hand out for the girl to take and she accepted it. He pulled her up and stepped close whispering as he turned them both to face the women, “nice choice, kid.” He looked the redhead over and sent Bennet a wink as they climbed from the ring.

“Good afternoon, Ms. Potts,” Bennett smiled at the older woman. 

“How is your protege coming along?” she asked.

“Making progress. A few more weeks and he will just about be ready to take on that sweet little lady that feeds the strays in the park. Hi,” she addressed the newcomer, “I don’t believe I’ve had the pleasure, Bennett Lancaster.” she held out a hand to the redhead. She could tell her nerves had kicked in as habits she thought she had long buried began to reappear. Tony smirked hearing the accent resurface. Some of her vowels began to draw out, like the first “a” in "Lancaster." Tony hadn't heard her Southern drawl since she first started working for him. 

The newcomer took her hand giving a light shake, “Natalie Rushman.”

“It’s nice to meet ya, Ms. Rushman,” She inwardly cringed. Reverting to old habits makes sense, nerves have you scrambling for comfort and familiarity. She hated this though. She knew she sounded more uneducated by the second. Her embarrassment peaked when she realized that she was still shaking Natalie’s hand. Far longer than could be considered normal. She fought down a blush again. Some higher power must have taken sympathy on the blonde as her phone rang on the other side of the room. “If y'all will excuse me for a minute. ” her gaze left Natalie's to look at Tony who was grinning from ear to ear. “I’ll be right back, Boss.” He nodded and she took her leave.

The call was from her dad. She answered and promised to call back when she had time to talk. Happy stood leaning against one of the corners of the ring. Bennett hopped up sitting on the ring beside him knowing this would be a long ordeal. “Kid, you got a bit of drool,” he teased looking between her and Natalie. She chose to ignore his jab but involuntarily wiped her lips with the back of her hand.  

Tony didn't even have to think about whether he was appointing Pepper as CEO. He had decided that. Knowing Tony he would make this a long and tedious process regardless.  

At Tony's request Natalie made her way into the boxing ring. "Bennett, want to give her a lesson?" He shot her a mischievous smile and went to talk to Pepper. Happy practically jumped into the ring volunteering before she could even move. " I got it boss." He climbed in the ring tightening his gloves. 

Bennett listened to Tony and Pepper's conversation to a point but focused most of her attention on  Happy's lesson. Leaning both arms on the bottom rope she listened as Happy questioned the woman. "Have you ever boxed before?" 

She nodded, "a bit." Her voice was low and Bennett felt a chill run up her spine. She could easily become addicted to it. 

"Like Tae Bo, booty boot camp, something like that?" Happy had apparently said the wrong thing. Her eyes flashed with irritation and something akin to murder. 

"Natalie, how do you spell your name?" Tony called from his seat. 

"R-u-s-h-m-a-n," she appeared to listen as Happy explained a few basic moves. The boredom in her eyes was evident.

On the other side of the room Tony searched her resume and accomplishments. Bennett listened as Tony read his findings out loud. Bennett glanced up when Tony began listing the languages she knew, Latin, really? And then again when he mentioned modeling.Tony hit a button so the pictures would project up off the screen. She caught a glimpse of one picture and immediately averted her gaze, her face and neck heating with no chance of getting it back under control. It wasn’t a completely inappropriate picture but was unprofessional and an invasion of her privacy.

Bennett moved to the opposite side of the ring so Tony and the screens were at her back. Natalie watched as she settled into the new spot. 

“Rule number one: never take your eyes off your opponent,” Happy took a swing at her. It was slow and weak. She caught it with ease, her eyes never leaving Bennett’s. Next thing Happy knew was an expert level take down. A chokehold and an arm bar that would leave his arm sore for a day or two. Pepper and Tony jumped from their seats shocked. Tony smirked looking from the woman to Happy and back. Pepper was slightly panicked as Happy pulled himself up. 

“I’m fine,” he stood rubbing his shoulder. Bennett bit back a laugh. He limped to the edge of the ring as Natalie slid gracefully through the ropes. She slipped her shoes back on and went to get Tony to finalize the paperwork. "I slipped," Happy said as he sat on the side of the ring beside Bennett. 

"She kicked your butt," the girl smirked. "TKO. Come on." She grabbed her mouthpiece, bouncing into the ring. "Give you a chance to redeem yourself."

"Right," he huffed climbing back in the ring, "we have fought before, remember, Kid."

"I’ll take it easy on, ya. Give you a chance to pick up the pieces of your broken pride,” she replied smugly. 

"You are going down, Kid" he pulled the straps of his gloves tighter and pulled up his guard. 

She caught sight of Natalie one last time over Happy's shoulder. The redhead smiled at the blonde and Bennett was gone. 

“I want one,” Tony quipped as Bennett kept her eyes on the door Ms. Rushman had just left through. 

“No,” was Pepper’s immediate reply. 

“Can I have one?” the words fell out of her mouth unchecked. Pepper’s scoff snapped her back to reality. Pepper rolled her eyes as she headed for the door. 

"She might let you have one," Tony eyed her, "what was up with the accent slip." He laughed and Bennett sent him a glare. "I hope she stays around. I would like to hear you say ‘ain't’ maybe ‘howdy’."

She faced Happy again, pulling her guard up. Maybe if she talked to Pepper she would keep Natalie around somewhere. 

That night Bennett wandered up out to the balcony to return the earlier phone call. She found her dad’s contact in her phone and pressed the button to dial. The other end rang once… twice before it was picked up. “How’s my favorite little hero,” her dad’s voice rang through the phone.

“Hey dad,” a soft smile played across her features at the childhood nickname. “I am doing pretty good. All things considered.” The normal conversation passed catching up on each other’s lives and plans for the next few weeks, reminiscing over the past.

Bennett laughed with her father at a story from when he was dating her mother. She sighed heavily. “Dad, I thought I knew what I was doing, but I was so far off the mark. Maybe love like what you and mom had is just a fairy tale.” Bennett shook her head looking to the heavens for guidance. “I gave her everything. For two years, I worked and scraped to make her happy and I wasn’t enough. I gave all I had to our relationship and my best wasn’t enough.”

“Benn, it wasn’t you. Relationships don’t work one sided. Both of you have to want it or it won’t work. You will fall in love again.” 

“I don’t think so, dad.” Bennett’s voice was soft. 

“When you were with Emily…” he started but stopped himself. “When Nora’s mother died I thought my life was done. It would be just me and this tiny little girl that I had know idea what to do with.” His smile came through the line, “then out of nowhere your mom showed up. I was going about my day at work, looked up, didn’t quite believe my eyes so I looked again. I hadn’t been the slightest bit interested in anyone but the moment I saw her I was hooked. It took a while to convince her but…well you know the end of the story.” Bennett didn’t have a response. “One day someone will come along, and she will be just what you need. Your mom had this one smile that was reserved just for me. After I saw it the first time I worked everyday to deserve another of those smiles. You will find her just give her a little bit of time.”

“Benn, come on, James Bond marathon,” Tony yelled from inside.

“Sorry dad, I gotta go,” Bennett apologized.

He chuckled, “I heard, go have fun kiddo. Make sure you watch the Connery ones.”

“Yes sir, Love you, dad,” Bennett smiled.

“Love you too. Bye.”

The faint click was heard and Bennett headed inside. “Boss, dad says we have to start with ‘From Russia With Love.’”

October not only signals the arrival of shittier weather, but also the beginning of a hectic gig schedule. October through to December this year is jam-packed with gig clashes, and tonight was just one of those nights where the concerning gig-goer was faced with multiple choices. A few hundred yards along the road, Ricky Warwick and Damon Johnson are playing to a sold out crowd. Over the bridge, Glenn Hughes is running through a Deep Purple greatest hits set. Then there is the small matter of an audience with Tony Iommi a few miles out of the city. Shit of luck as far as Aussie beer drinkers and hell raisers Massive are concerned, but rather than letting it get them down, the foursome put on the type of show that turned into one of those “you had to be there” moments.

With the local support act not performing, it was the job of Brighton’s The Rocket Dolls to kick the evening off and beckon everyone forward towards the barrier. The trio made up of Nikki Smash on vocals and guitar, bassist Joe Constable and drummer Benji Knopfler, play a brand of contemporary rock that sticks out a bit in amongst the bulging crowd of retro blues-rock outfits treading the boards today. Current album, ‘DeaDHeaD’, is quite a dark album, both lyrically and aurally, and this is amplified a thousand fold live. With a name like Nikki Smash, he’s hardly going to tickle his guitar is he? Playing on two Fender Strats (including one gorgeous custom job with a reverse headstock) the guitar sound is powerful enough to deliver a punch to knock the wind out of those in the firing line. ‘She’s Starting Something Now’ is the perfect mix of Tremonti-sized face-melting riffs with hypnotic Alice In Chains-style vocal melodies. It’s a huge number where both Constable and Knopfler earn their crust, and on more than one occasion I find myself drawn in by the thumping work from Knopfler. So much so, I’m not paying attention when he fires a drumstick into the crowd and it’s coming straight at my head through the darkness. A quick duck out of the way, and the person next to me has a nice souvenir of the evening.

Smash is a warm and engaging frontman. He’s confident when speaking, and it’s hard to imagine him doing anything but fronting a band. Later on, when Massive are thanking The Rocket Dolls, they pay special attention to how good looking Nikki is, and how great his teeth are! Imagine a healthy Dave Gahan in full-on rock star mode, and you are on the right track. Smash can also play. His playing on ‘Rusty Bones’ (“A slow one for the ladies”) is hugely impressive, as it is throughout the set. Even though technically it is the “slow” one, it leaves its mark in many ways. The melodies are huge and the pounding work from Constable and Knopfler crushes. The final pairing of ‘Strain’ and ‘DeaDHeaD’ is a knockout one-two. With Smash using the aforementioned custom Strat, the Fender fan-boy in me is in overdrive. Drooling aside, it’s a powerful way to bring the set to a close. ‘DeaDHeaD’ is simply massive with a killer guitar sound to rattle the filings in your teeth. Do check The Rocket Dolls out. A break from the norm, and a band offering a different slant on the whole current Rock scene.

Put Massive on any stage, in any town, and they will give any band a wake up call. Going on after these nutters would worry even the most cocksure of bands out there. With no local support, it meant Massive have an extra half hour on stage. Guitarist Ben Laguda has family in the crowd… let the carnage commence!

As frontman Brad Marr said, Massive don’t have a setlist planned, it’s off the cuff and they play what they like on the evening. So, loosely, the setlist is made up of select choices from debut album ‘Full Throttle’, follow up ‘Destination Somewhere’ and due-in-2019 ‘Rebuild Destroy’. Throw in some raucous covers, lashings of banter and pisstaking, empty beer cans getting chucked at the bassist, Laguda bolting off stage mid-song to take a piss, and you have the recipe for sheer, unfiltered Rock N’ Roll.

‘Lacey’ still moves like a rabid dog chasing down a twat on a bicycle. ‘Dancefloor’ has the fattest bass licks ever with an incredible hi-hat sound to match. Throw in the “Jump!….We’ve got the motherfucking dancefloor” part and the bar staff have the mops to hand for the spillage. ‘Blood Money Blues’ continues the carnage, and ‘One For The Road’ gets a rare outing… so rare, that Marr introduces it by saying “This is ‘One For The Road’, and it sounds nothing like this… it’s completely unrehearsed”. A few new tracks are aired; new single ‘Roses’ is a total banger, ‘Long Time Coming’ runs it a close second. The crowd are making their presence felt and rugs are being cut left, right, and centre. Hips are in danger of needing putting back in, and the copious amount of alcohol consumed will result in some sore heads in the morning, but not a jot is given because, if you can’t party on a Friday night, when can you?

‘Ghost’ is just one of many crowd-pleasers, and Marr (who has now changed into a Scotland cricket top) leads the crowd in a sing-a-long. It has a hook tailor made for bellowing at the top of your lungs, and at one point Ben Laguda (after a quick toilet break) whips out his phone and tells everyone to, “say hello to Australia!”. Shots are passed over from the crowd, Marr realises that they are Jägerbombs, and breaks into a few bars of ‘Jägerbomb’ from Massive’s good mates Tequila Mockingbyrd. He necks a beer, pours the rest over his head (well, it was Fosters mate) before he, Laguna, and bassist Alex Carmichael end the song all playing their guitars behind their heads, while drummer Andrew Greentree is standing up battering seven bells out of his kit. A ten minute free-for-all you wouldn’t have got over the bridge at Glenn Hughes.

Talking of Mr Hughes. He comes in for some good natured ribbing when Marr dedicates a blistering cover of ‘Highway Star’ to him. “Fucking Glenn Hughes! We booked our tour first… and we’re younger!” Along with ‘Highway Star’, the band blitz their way through ‘TNT’, ‘Immigrant Song’, and a few bars of ‘500 Miles’, before ending on the full blown assault of ‘Highway To Hell’.

Regardless of how many punters turned up tonight, Massive made it a party occasion and a night to remember for many reasons. The music, the banter, the sight of Ben Laguda chucking his Gibson down and dashing for the lav. The same Ben Laguda going for a saunter in the crowd while still plugged in, meaning Nikki Smash from The Rocket Dolls had to act as guitar tech, and make sure he stayed tangle free. Every person in attendance will tell someone about this gig, and hopefully bring them along when Massive return in the Summer.

Genuinely, you had to be there. The best £12 I’ve ever spent… apart from this one time when one kebab wasn’t enough and a second one had to be bought. That was pretty special.

NAVAL ORDNANCE AND GUNNERY CHAPTER 12 TORPEDOES HOME    INDEX    SECTION  A. Introduction  B. Head section of a Mark 15 type torpedo  C. Air system of a Mark 15 torpedo D. Superheating system of a Mark 15 torpedo E. Main engine of a Mark 15 torpedo F. Control systems of a Mark 15 torpedo G. Tail section of a Mark 15 torpedo H. Aircraft torpedos I. Other types of torpedoes J. Above-water torpedo tubes                                                   H. Aircraft Torpedoes 12H1. Construction and use Aircraft torpedoes came into common tactical use during World War II, as alternate weapons to aircraft bombs for use in attacks on surface ships. Torpedo attacks, however, ordinarily are not made against well-defended units, unless supporting attack is made simultaneously by other types of planes to divide the enemy antiaircraft fire. When properly employed, torpedo attack may force enemy ships to maneuver into an unfavorable position with respect to a main attack delivered by own ships, or accept the penalty of torpedo hits. Aircraft torpedoes must be able to withstand heavy water impacts. They must also be capable of maintaining stable flight from plane to water, and a stable course through the water to the target. The Mark 13 torpedo, shown in figure 12H1, is one of the older types still in service use. It is similar to the Mark 15 torpedo but differs in certain details of size and design, including the incorporation of special stabilization elements necessary for effective launching from aircraft. An aircraft torpedo usually is suspended between two racks, which have suspension cables running between them and around the torpedo. A small stop bolt, projecting downward from the plane into a hole in the torpedo casing, serves to prevent fore-and-aft slipping of the torpedo in its cables. When one end of each cable is released, the torpedo falls away. 12H2. Mark l3 torpedo The Mark 13 torpedo differs from the Mark 15 torpedo in the following ways: 1. The Mark 13 torpedo has better provision for air stabilization, being much shorter and slightly larger in diameter. It is 13 feet 5 inches long, and 22.42 inches in diameter. 2. The Mark 13 torpedo has greater capacity for withstanding water impact. 3. The Mark 13 torpedo contains a smaller explosive charge: 600 pounds of HBX. 4. The Mark 13 torpedo has a shorter designed range: 5,700 yards. 5. The Mark 13 torpedo has a single speed: 33.5 knots. 6. The Mark 13 torpedo has a water trip delay valve to prevent ignition until the torpedo enters the water. 7. The Mark 13 torpedo has a shroud ring around its tail vanes, which tends to minimize hooking and broaching upon water entry, and makes for greater stability during the water run. 8. The Mark 13 torpedo is rigged for launching with a box-shaped plywood stabilizer fitted over the fins and shroud ring. This stabilizer causes the torpedo to fall in a smooth curve, and to enter the water head first. The stabilizer breaks up on impact with the water. A parachute drogue stabilizer has been designed as a substitute for the box stabilizer. 9. The Mark 13 torpedo has a drag ring, in the form of a plywood tube open at each end, fitted over its head. The drag ring slows the torpedo’s rate of fall, tends to reduce wobbling, and acts as a shock absorber on water impact. The stabilizer and drag ring are shown in figure 12H2. This drag ring is not used when the torpedo is rigged with a parachute stabilizer.

Mark Eliason, VP Sales & Marketing

In the heat of the Summer (OK, well, as hot as it gets in Maine!), we’d like to introduce you to a hot new Windham Weaponry 9MM Carbine.

This unique new offering incorporates some of our Multi-Caliber System features with a package of top notch accessories, all in the easy to shoot and affordable 9MM caliber.

We’ve done things a bit differently in this month’s newsletter as we encouraged our Head Gunsmith, Erik Winter, to do the write-up on this rather than one of his usual tutorial articles, and we combined that with our Feature Gun for the Month. These 9mm Carbines are so new that you may have to press your local FFL Dealer a bit to get one in for your closer inspection as they are just hitting the distribution chain now. But don’t hesitate to do that, and enjoy your Summer!

To see all our rifles and accessories, go to www.windhamweaponry.com   

or call us for a free catalog (1-855-808-1888) – We would love to hear from you.

As always, hunt and shoot safely, and feel free to contact us with any AR related questions.

FROM THE GUNSMITH’S BENCH

Erik Winter, Windham Weaponry Gunsmith

TOPIC:   Introducing our new 9MM Carbine

For this month’s gunsmithing article, rather than a how-to column I’d like to present our new 9mm Carbine because I’m pretty excited about it. I think this is a great addition to our line of rifles, and it allows you to get your feet wet in the MCS (Multi Caliber System) world by starting off only buying a single caliber rifle. This gets you a great 9mm carbine with the added versatility of being able to upgrade to other magazine wells and calibers down the road if you wish. You can buy a standard AR magazine well and the carbine buffer and it will allow you to use uppers in 5.56, .300 Blackout, .450 and 7.62 x 39 (AR style). You could also later buy an AK47 magazine well and MCS upper in 7.62×39 and be able to use standard AK47 magazines. So the options you have in the future are numerous all using the same lower receiver that comes standard with our 9mm carbine.

This Month’s Question is:

People often ask “What is the Windham Weaponry Special Build Program ?”

Answer:

Our Special Build Program allows you to order a custom built rifle through your local FFL Dealer. Your uniquely configured rifle will be built at the factory to suit your individual taste and shooting style. Most Windham Weaponry rifle models can be ordered with a wide variety of our Windham Weaponry accessories custom installed by our professional Gunsmiths.

First, choose the rifle and list of accessories we offer (see website or catalog) that you would like installed on your rifle. Then visit your local FFL gun dealer and ask them to call us for pricing. The dealer will order the rifle, we will build it and ship directly to your dealer.

If you have any questions about this process, or about parts compatibility, please give us call.

Note: You can also have us build an Upper Receiver Assembly with accessory parts of your choice. We can do that through a direct factory order, so just tell us what you want!

Here are links to our website section called “Trick My Rifle” where we show you some of the variations on the AR platform. Let your imagination run wild!

MARKETING NEWS

Mark Eliason, VP Sales & Marketing

Summer brings a whole host of outdoor activities, and one of the most fun & challenging is 3 Gun Competition Shooting. Requiring expertise with pistol, rifle, and shotgun over a timed course, 3 Gun Competition events are held all over the US.

Frank Proctor – owner and lead instructor at Way of the Gun – knows more than most about competition shooting due to his lifelong passion for the sport and his career as a Special Forces Operator. Frank says “Performance Shooting  – In a nutshell – is putting bullets on targets quickly in any situation and winning in any arena, combat or competition”. Frank has developed and continues to evolve a simple and proven methodology for training to master the 5 components of Performance Shooting: Processing, Control, Mechanics, Movement and the Mental aspects of shooting to win. Way of the Gun operates out of it’s private training facility near Talladega, AL. The WOTG facility features 11 pistol bays with over 100 AR 500 steel targets.  WOTG has 3 dedicated rifle ranges out to 475 yards covered in steel targets. The rifle ranges offer natural terrain such as trees, boulders, and vehicles to shoot from in order to hone the skills to win in any environment. See more on Way of the Gun at:  www.wayofthegun.us

Frank asked Windham Weaponry to build a carbine to his detailed specifications, and the resulting carbine – our Featured Gun of the Month – includes  a Midwest Industries Key Mod 15″ Forend; Magpul MOE Telestock; BCM Pistol Grip, Charging Handle & Compensator; CMC Trigger; Mid-length Gas System and Frank’s Way of the Gun DVD & Sling. See all the detail below.

FROM THE GUNSMITH’S BENCH

Erik Winter, Windham Weaponry Gunsmith

TOPIC:   AR15 Bolt Carrier Cleaning

Shown here is a rather extreme example of a dirty carrier which hasn’t been cleaned in about 5000 rounds.

For cleaning a carrier I like the Carbon Scraper Tool (WW Part # CARBONSCRAPER – $36.00 – with a model also available for .308 / 7.62x39mm caliber) and Wipe Out Tactical Advantage Solvent (WW Part # CLEANER-TACADV – $15.95). Here I just simply applied the Tactical Advantage and used a toothbrush. You can also soak the carrier in this solvent to make carbon removal even easier as it won’t harm the chrome lining. Any places you can’t reach with the carbon scraper you can use a razor blade to carefully remove thick carbon deposits. But if you don’t go 1000 rounds or more without cleaning your carrier you won’t have this much carbon to scrape off. Also, note that you can use the part of the scraper used for the bolt tail to clean carbon from the retaining pin area of the firing pin.

Clean and ready to roll…

This Month’s Question is:

People often ask “What is included with a new Windham Weaponry Rifle?”

Answer:

  Standard with every Windham Weaponry Rifle are:

1) A yellow chamber plug/safety tool (shown inserted in the rifle). This acts as a safe chamber indicator, and is also handy as a push pin tool for takedown and pivot pins, and can function as a magazine unloading tool. 2) A 52″ black nylon web sling – 1.25″ wide with two black phosphate finished steel buckles 3) A high-quality Magazine appropriate to the Caliber of the Rifle: 30 Rd .223/5.56 mm caliber (for states where they are allowed / 10 Rd. for states with that restriction). For our .308 rifles, a 20-Rd Magpul P-Mag is included (except for states that require a 10-Rd. magazine where that is substituted). 4) A comprehensive, full-color Operating/Safety Manual 5) A catalog of Windham Weaponry models, parts, and accessories, which includes complete warranty registration information. 6) All this, and the rifle are packaged in a hard plastic, foam lined, lockable carrying case.

All of these support pieces help you understand why a Windham Weaponry Rifle is the best value on the AR market today.

************

Dear Windham Weaponry Team

Greetings from Switzerland!

I have recently purchased my very first AR15, a Windham Weaponry AR15 with a heavy barrel here in Switzerland and I’m extremely happy with my purchase! Thank you for making such amazing products, I will be recommending your brand to all my friends and also at the range that I go to!

P.S. Attached is a picture of my amazing WW AR15!

*****************************

Dear Sirs,

I am a 63-year-old lifelong hunter and sport shooter born, raised, and still residing in Northwest Ohio. I never really had a desire to have an AR or any other military style rifle because of the many liberal anti-hunt/anti-gun folks that have made their way into our rural communities. Many of those folks share Obama’s view of ARs as being a “high powered dangerous assault rifle”, or in some cases a “machine gun”. I just always wanted to avoid any confrontation with ignorance of guns and hunting.

My wife of 42 years and I have 3 sons that too are lifelong hunters and sports shooters. Two of them live in Phoenix, Arizona and the other lives in Las Vegas. They are still active hunters and sports shooters. A few years ago one of them bought a Spikes AR. I looked at it and put it to my shoulder and thought “yup, a machine gun”.

Now fast forward to a couple years ago when I was given a Windham Weaponry catalog by a co-worker who owns a Windham. He even came to my sportsman club and had me shoot it. I hadn’t taken the time to look through the catalog as I thought “all it contains are pictures of those dangerous machine guns, and if I get one, I’ll be looked at as a nut case old man with a machine gun”.

But then one day at work during my morning break, I began flipping through the catalog and stopped, mouth agape, when I saw the picture of the SRC in TreeBark Camo.” Now, this,”I said to myself “is a hunting rifle, not a machine gun”. Long story short, I bought one, absolutely love it, shoot it often, hunt varmints with it, and will keep it forever.

I did put a Geisele two stage trigger in it, put a Nikon ProStaff  3-9X40 camo scope on it, and bought a really cool camo sling for it that my wife did some incredible seamstress work in order for it to fit the rifle properly.

Recently, somewhere on your website or on a piece of Windham literature I saw an email address telling people to “send pictures of how you use your Windham”. I can’t remember where I saw that ad, but here are a couple pictures.

Thanks for a great rifle that opened my eyes (and brain) to the amount of fun that can be had with owning an AR15.

Buddy Van Sickle
