Abseiling slope glue in bolt with rings

The abseil rope glue in bolt with rings consists of a 10 x 80mm glue in bolt with two 8mm rings. It is very suitable for all types of rock. Firstly, it is made of corrosion-resistant AISI 316L steel. Secondly, the 80mm setting depth provides a perfect hold. Thirdly, the two rings ensure that the lower ring always hangs freely. This allows the rope to be pulled off perfectly when rappelling.

The manufacturer is Raumer Climbing in Italy.

Abseiling slope glue in bolt with rings set correctly

It is best to place the two hooks slightly offset one above the other. This ensures that the rappelling is connected in series. Only the upper hook or ring is loaded. And secondly, this creates redundancy.

Countersink and glue the carabiner eyelet!

One of the most common mistakes when working with the abseil runway glue in bolt with rings is the following: the carabiner eye of the hook is not countersunk or not glued. Hence our advice. Firstly, drill out a small channel from drilling hole vertically downwards. Clean this. After inserting the hook, spread the adhesive that oozes out properly. This protects the hook much better, especially against radial forces!

Borehole cleaning abseiling slope glue in bolt with rings

If you want to bolt a climbing route with a bolt, you should proceed carefully. This is because setting up a climbing route with glue in bolt harbors several potential sources of error.

Start with a high-quality SDS drill bit to obtain a round drilling hole. For example, the Fischer Quattric or Pointer Plus. This is the only way to achieve an even contact with the injection mortar.

Secondly, the borehole cleaning process is extremely precise. Firstly, the drilling dust with the drilling hole blow out pumb blown out. Secondly, two more cleaning passes with the hole brush or Fischer brush. Thirdly, blow out again and that’s it!

Bolting near the sea

The Raumer Superstar glue in bolt cannot be used near the sea. For this we clearly recommend the products from Fixe Climbing. Because the Fixe PLX – Duplex steel products consist of the right steel.

We also stock products made of HCR steel from Climbing Technology and titanium from Vertical Evolution.
