This high-quality 12mm glue in bolt 150mm is made by the Italian manufacturer Vertical Evolution. It is made of highly corrosion-resistant AISI 316L stainless steel. In addition, it is made even more durable with the special “Surface” surface treatment.
With its dimensions of 12 x 150mm, it is perfect for use in soft rock. For example in sandstone. On the other hand, the massive breaking load value makes it the ideal heavy-duty glue in bolt.
Areas of application 12mm glue in bolt 150mm
The dimension and consequently the enormous surface area is the great advantage of this hook. As a result, it is perfect for soft rock. Such as sandstone, for example.
On the other hand, the large breaking load predestines the hook for large loads, e.g. as an end anchor for small via ferratas.
Here are some suggestions for ideal areas of application:
- End anchor for rope railings or short via ferratas
- Flying Fox fixed points (always set up redundantly!)
- Tibetan Bridge
- Material transportation
- Mountain rescue
- long slacklines
- Abseiling points
Large and extremely resilient
The heavy-duty glue in bolt has a very high breaking load due to its 12 mm thick steel. This is 45kN. Assuming proper workmanship during installation, it is by far the strongest of all our glue in bolt.
12mm glue in bolt 150mm and Rapid links
Do you want to attach a screw link / quick link to the hook? Use the hook as a lower off / abseil anchor? To avoid galvanic corrosion, only use links made of A4 steel / AISI 316(L).
In our technical article“Steel qualities at expansion bolt and glue in bolt ” you can get a more in-depth insight if you like!
You also need a suitable size so that the screw link fits around the thick carabiner eyelet. Such as the 10mm Kong Quick Link.
Set 12mm glue in bolt 150mm correctly!
If you want to bolt a climbing route, you should be very careful. This is because setting up a climbing route with glue in bolt harbors the potential for mistakes.
Firstly, start with a high-quality SDS drill bit. This is the only way to get an exact, round drilling hole. For example, use the Fischer Quattric II. This is the only way to achieve an even contact with the injection mortar.
Secondly, the borehole cleaning is done meticulously. Firstly, remove the drilling dust with the drilling hole blow out pumb out. Secondly, make further cleaning passes with the hole brush or Fischer brush. Thirdly, blow out again, voila!
Countersink and glue the carabiner eyelet!
When settingglue in bolt , make sure you avoid the most common mistake. Namely, not sinking or gluing the carabiner eyelet on the side of the rock. This is particularly important when working with heavy loads on sandstone glue in bolt!
