Precision for the Panama Canal: M80 Dowel Bolts in Grade 10.9

At Pattberg Maschinenbauteile GmbH, we prioritize precision and quality to execute even the most demanding projects. A recent example of this is the M80 dowel bolts we manufactured specifically for the locks of the Panama Canal. These bolts, produced in strength class 10.9, meet stringent requirements for load capacity and durability.

The production of these bolts requires utmost accuracy: the shaft is ground to an accuracy of one hundredth of a millimeter, ensuring a perfect fit within its environment. The rolled thread provides additional strength and reliability, which is essential in such critical applications.

Why Precision Matters

In a complex project like the locks of the Panama Canal, every component is crucial. Dowel bolts like these must not only withstand enormous stresses but also consistently perform their function. At Pattberg Maschinenbauteile, we understand that even the smallest error can have serious consequences. That’s why we place great emphasis on getting every detail right—from material selection to final inspection.

Our custom solutions are manufactured to the highest standards to exceed our customers’ expectations and ensure smooth operations. The combination of state-of-the-art technology, experienced professionals, and rigorous quality controls makes us a reliable partner for projects worldwide.
