CT Belay Station 12mm climbing anchor

The CT Belay Station is an EN 959 standardized 12mm climbing anchor made of AISI 316L stainless steel. This means that this product is ideal for climbing crag holders. It is recommended if you want to deliberately “over belay”.

This lower off is therefore equipped with bolt hanger equipped with a 12 mm hole. It can be attached in all hard to medium-hard rocks with the appropriate expansion bolt.

It also has a fixed steel carabiner, also made of stainless steel. It is theft-protected thanks to its splint. This is hooked directly into a ring.

In short. A high-quality and ready-made solution for your climbing areas! Also available as a variant with 10mm bolt hanger!

10mm vs. 12mm

From a technical point of view, a 12mm climbing anchor is very much “overprotected”. This means that it holds significantly more than it actually has to in hard rock.

Because even 10mm expansion bolt is technically sufficient.

The setting depth, dimensions and breaking loads also meet the EN 959 standard for solid rock. Therefore, 12 mm is only required for deliberate “over belaying” or increased setting depth.

For example, if the rock is poor on the surface.

Ideal for climbing frame holders

If you are planning to build a climbing area, you’ve come to the right place.

This 12mm climbing anchor has the EN 959 standard throughout, making it ideal for climbing frame holders. However, you must also carry out the checks and maintenance required by law in Austria.

These are, on the one hand, the recorded annual inspection. And on the other hand, keeping a route book – maintenance book.

Theft-protected carabiner

The steel carabiner on this 12mm climbing anchor is theft-proof. This is because it is secured with a fixed splint. This means it cannot simply be removed from the abseil ring.

For refurbishments, the splint must then be bent. It cannot be opened with an Allen key.

Installing the CT Belay Station Plate correctly

Observe the two most important basic rules when installing climbing anchors.

Firstly. Never tension the chain between the plates. Always ensure that there is a little slack in the chain!

Secondly. The top flap must be slightly offset. This creates a V with an angle. This may be a maximum of 45°.
