Sandstone glue in bolt

Our sandstone glue in bolt is a big thing. Because it has a dimension of 12 x 150mm. This means that it is ideal for deep and solid bonding in very soft rocks.

What makes this hook stand out is its triangular carabiner eye. This means that this glue in bolt is ideal for axial loads in particular. This is because the carabiner is aligned directly in the direction of the load.

The hook can also be glued in horizontally. This means that every carabiner hooked in or a screw link 90° to the rock. Or to put it better. It then becomes a perfect abseil point.

Perfect for soft and gritty rock

Our sandstone glue in bolt is perfect for soft rock due to its dimensions. Such as sandstone, for example. In addition, the glue in bolt is also recommended for all splintery rock types where a large embedment depth is required.

At 150mm, this hook is the perfect length for this. This is because the large surface area creates a large contact surface for the adhesive in the drilling hole. This is the only way to guarantee a perfect hold.

Sandstone glue in bolt

The 3-cornered eyelet shape of the glue in bolt requires two things.

Firstly, a carabiner aligns itself correctly when pulled axially. It is also held securely in position in the “corner”.

Secondly, the hook can also be glued horizontally. In this case, the karabiners or screw links are at 90° to the rock. In this case an ideal application if you want to create an abseil point.

In any case, do not forget! Drill out the channel for the eyelet for the sandstone glue in bolt to prevent axial twisting. Then also glue in the eyelet part on the side of the rock.
