Electrical measurements made in the laboratory are useful in generally predicting the relative behavior of bolt materials underground as pertaining to the corrosive effect of the soil. Some arbitrarily chosen low-alloy ferrous materials are shown to be superior to plain cast iron or steel commonly used for the fabrication of bolts. The effect of exposure on the potentials of cast iron and galvanized iron as components of galvanic couples is described.
