THE HOLLO-BOLT RANGE
For minimal visible protrusion, the countersunk head
features a Grade 10.9 bolt with a special collar to
accommodate the entire head so that drilling
countersunk holes is not necessary.
COUNTERSUNK (HEAD)
For zero visible protrusion, the innovative Flush Fit
Hollo-Bolt is entirely concealed within the countersunk
hole once installed, a perfect solution for architects!
FLUSH FIT
1. Align pre-drilled fixture and section and insert Hollo-Bolt .
2. Grip the Hollo-Bolt collar with an open ended spanner.
3. Using a torque wrench, tighten the central bolt to recommended torque.
SIMPLE HOLLO-BOLT INSTALLATION
The Hollo-Bolt eliminates the need for conventional through-bolting or welding
of structural hollow section (SHS) or any steel structure where access is only
available from one side.

Hollo-Bolt sizes M16 and M20 are optimised for structural connections and feature a patented High Clamping Force (HCF)
Mechanism. This mechanism allows the Hollo-Bolt (HCF) to produce a typical clamping force over three times higher than the
same sized product without the mechanism. The increased clamping force results in a more secure connection, as a greater
force has to be overcome before displacement begins.
