New Star Industries is a trusted HSFG Bolts manufacturer in Ludhiana, Punjab, supplying High Strength Friction Grip Structural Bolts for critical steel structures across India. Our HSFG bolts are manufactured using quality-approved raw materials and precision-controlled processes to ensure consistent mechanical properties, dimensional accuracy, and dependable joint performance.
Why Engineers Choose New Star Industries — HSFG Bolts Manufacturer in Ludhiana Since 1961
As a trusted HSFG Bolts manufacturer in Ludhiana, New Star Industries has been supplying High Strength Friction Grip structural fasteners to India's most demanding civil and railway infrastructure projects since 1961. Our bolts are tightened to a controlled preload that generates a massive clamping force, transferring loads entirely through friction between connected surfaces — eliminating joint slip and providing far superior structural performance compared to ordinary bolts.
Manufactured at our Ludhiana facility in Punjab, every HSFG bolt undergoes rigorous quality control to meet IS 3757, EN 14399, and ASTM A325 standards — making them the preferred choice for railways, bridges, high-rise steel frames, and infrastructure tenders across India.
RDSO Approved — Railway & Infrastructure Grade
Our HSFG bolts carry RDSO approval, making them eligible for Indian Railways projects, bridge tenders, and government infrastructure procurement. The heavy hex head (8.8S / 10.9S) distributes clamping force over a larger bearing area, protecting structural plates from deformation under high preload.

Key Benefits of New Star HSFG Bolts
Vibration Resistance
Nuts are prevented from loosening because bolts are tensioned to proof load — ideal for railway bridges and structures subjected to constant dynamic loads.
Superior Safety
High inherent material strength reduces fire hazards and structural failure risk. Friction-grip mechanism prevents any relative movement between joined plates.
Cost-Effective
Fewer bolts achieve the same structural strength compared to ordinary bolts, reducing material costs, installation time, and overall project manpower requirements.
Low Noise Installation
Tightened with calibrated torque wrenches rather than pneumatic hammers — significantly lower installation noise, meeting urban project site requirements.
Applications Across Infrastructure & Industry

Frequently Asked Questions — HSFG Bolts Manufacturer in Ludhiana
Ordinary bolts transfer loads through bearing and shear on the bolt shank. HSFG (High Strength Friction Grip) bolts are tightened to a specific tension to create a massive clamping force, transferring the load through friction between the connected surfaces — eliminating joint slip entirely and providing far superior fatigue performance.
The "S" stands for Structural. HSFG bolts have a larger heavy hex head (Across Flats) compared to standard bolts. This distributes the heavy clamping force over a larger bearing area, protecting the structural steel plates from deformation under the high preload tension.
New Star Industries manufactures HSFG bolts in compliance with IS 3757, IS 4000, and IS 6623/6649 for nuts and washers. We also supply products meeting international EN 14399 and ASTM A325 standards, including RDSO-approved variants for Indian Railways.
Yes. HSFG bolts must be used with hardened circular washers conforming to IS 6649. These washers are essential to maintain the high preload tension and prevent the bolt head or nut from embedding into the structural steel surface during tightening.
Bridges and girders face constant vibration and dynamic loads. HSFG bolts provide superior fatigue resistance because the friction-grip mechanism prevents any relative movement between joined plates. This is why they are the mandated fastener choice for Indian Railways and most highway bridge codes.
Yes. New Star Industries manufactures HSFG bolts at our Ludhiana, Punjab facility and supplies pan-India — including to Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, and project sites across all major states. We handle bulk orders for railways, infrastructure tenders, and steel fabrication projects of all scales. Contact us for a bulk quote.
