Frequently Asked Questions
Will installing the Type HB Hollo-Bolt damage my steelwork's coating?
No, because there is no need to drill or weld, the existing protective coatings on your structural steel (such as galvanisation or intumescent paint) remain completely undisturbed, preventing future corrosion.
What tools are required for installation?
Installation typically requires only standard hand tools, such as a calibrated torque wrench and standard spanners or sockets. No specialist heavy machinery is needed.
Can these fixings be adjusted after installation?
Yes, girder clamps and similar frictional fixings can be loosened, repositioned for perfect alignment, and re-tightened, offering unparalleled flexibility compared to traditional welding or bolted joints.
