The Fixe PLX climbing anchor with 10mm lugs and 2 carabiners is made of Fixe PLX steel and is therefore ideal for bolting near the sea. In the Alpine region, this steel also guarantees extreme durability. Duplex is a special alloy with very high corrosion resistance. Duplex steel / PLX STEEL also has a very high resistance to stress corrosion cracking. At Fixe Climbing, Duplex steel has been given the proper name PLX steel.
Due to the high quality, PLX drilling materials can also be used anywhere in the Alpine region! On the one hand, this makes sense close to cities, for example. On the other hand, it also makes sense wherever you want to use high-quality steel. This massively increases the service life. You can find more information in our technical article“Steel qualities at expansion bolt and glue in bolt“.
The two fixed, counter-mounted snapgate carabiner make the lower off the perfect top rope station or climbing gym lower off.
We also stock the matching PLX expansion bolt or PLX bolt hanger and PLX glue in bolt.
