the
Heavy Duty Bolt
The Heavy Duty Bolt, known as the HD Bolt, was developed as a shorter blind fixing which would offer improved performance when the shear plane being fixed falls across the legs of a standard Blind Bolt
The HD Bolt represents the optimum fixing solution when dealing with heavy weight steel sections. The unique pin locking mechanism and expanding base combine strength with a simple activation process. The only tools necessary are a hammer and spanner, rather than the specialist equipment required when using alternative products. This means that using the Heavy Duty Bolt saves on installation time and expense.
Advantages of the HD Bolt:
- Quick and simple installation
- No requirement for an oversized hole
- 1000 hours of salt spray protection provided by Zinc Flake 1000Hr SSP coating
- Makes any assembly more efficient
- Unique pin locking facility
