Not suitable for bolting near the sea!

This bolting value pack is NOT suitable for bolting near the sea . If you want to set up a climbing route there with expansion bolt you need a different product! We recommend the Fixe PLX – Duplex steel. This corresponds to the necessary corrosion class to withstand the extreme chemical conditions in the medium to long term.

The following products are also perfect for bolting near the sea:

• Titanium glue in bolt
• HCR steel bolt hanger or HCR steel expansion bolt and HCR steel glue in bolt
• injection mortar for use near the sea
