What are Hollo bolts?
The Lindapter Hollo-Bolt is a patented method of securing to square, rectangular or circular hollow section steel, or to conventional steelwork where access is available from one side only.
Why are hollow bolts used?
A Hollo-Bolt eliminates the need to side-cut a slot for access to a nut. This way, the aesthetics of the job are preserved, and the job gets done a lot faster, with a stronger hold.
How does a hollow bolt work?
As the bolt head is tightened, the cone is pulled up the bolt thread, causing the legs of the sleeve to expand until the cone locks the sleeve against the inner wall of the hollow section. At full tightening torque, a clamping action is set up between the fixture and steel section to form a secure connection.
What are hollow bolts called?
Hollo-Bolt – an expansion bolt for Structural Hollow Sections (SHS/HSS) with “blind connections,” when you only have access to one side of the connection.
Where are hollow bolts used?
Hollo-Bolts are suitable for structural connections due to their capability to resist loading in both tension and shear. For example, the M20 Lindapter Hollo-Bolt has a safe working load of 35kN in tension and 40kN in shear.
What is a box bolt?
Box Bolt – is an expansion bolt for structural steel connections to hollow section steel or where there is a “blind connection,” where you only have access to one side of the connection.
