Austrialpin lower off Micro – AISI 316L

The Austrialpin lower off Micro is a high-quality product. The EN standard 959-tested stand is made entirely of AISI 316L stainless steel. This means it can be used in all public climbing areas. In addition, the fixed micro steel carabiner has a large diameter. It is also very abrasion-resistant. In short. A climbing anchor for all those who want high-quality equipment.

Because the features of the lower off are all top. Firstly, the AISI 316L stainless steel. Secondly, the EN 959 standard, which is important for climbing crag holders. Thirdly, the durable steel carabiner. Fourthly, the stand can be attached with 10mm expansion bolt.

Features Austrialpin lower off Micro

• Material: AISI 316L stainless steel
• EN 959 standard,
• Rings: 8mm thick and approx. 30mm inner diameter
• bolt hanger with 10mm bore
• Weight: 587 gram
• Carabiner: Austrialpin Micro steel carabiner
• EN 12275, EN 362
• breaking load Carabiner: 25 kN lengthwise – 8 kN open – 8 kN crosswise
• Snap opening: 20mm
• Total length lower off: 30cm

Please note! The pre-assembled carabiner must be removed for replacement. This maintenance work can be expensive. This is why a climbing anchor with rapid link is an economically interesting alternative. The carabiner can be easily replaced. For example, as with our bolting.eu climbing area climbing anchor.

climbing anchor Position correctly

Pay attention to the correct positioning of the Austrialpin lower off Micro. If possible, it should allow a free-hanging carabiner. You should also avoid attaching it directly above heels. This can lead to enormous abrasion on the rope sheath.

Are you interested in bolting a climbing route? Then take part in one of our bolting.eu Academy workshops or bolting courses. These cover topics such as:

• “Set up a climbing route with glue in bolt “
• “Set up a climbing route with expansion bolt “
• Ground-in carabiners

Matching expansion bolt Austrialpin lower off Micro

The suitable expansion bolt for this climbing anchor are the 10mm Fischer FBN II bolt anchors A 4 steel. These are made of the same highly corrosion-resistant steel.

Please note the correct torque at expansion bolt. The Fischer expansion bolt 10mm has a recommendation of 25Nm!

The combination with zinc plated bolt hanger must be avoided at all costs. Likewise with normal stainless steel bolt hanger (A4 steel). This creates galvanic corrosion. Not familiar with this yet? Then read our lead article “Galvanic corrosion at expansion bolt“.

NOT suitable for bolting near the sea!

The Austrialpin lower off Micro is NOT suitable for bolting near the sea. The AISI 316L steel does not meet the required corrosion class. This means that the lower off will not withstand extreme chemical conditions in the medium to long term. Here we clearly recommend the Fixe PLX materials from Fixe Climbing.

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

• Titanium glue in bolt
• HCR expansion bolt or HCR bolt hanger
