Product Overview:
The ForgeFix Lightning Bolt is an innovative medium to heavy-duty thread-forming anchor engineered for both temporary and permanent anchoring applications. Its unique design creates a virtually stress-free fixing that's ideal for close-to-edge installations, as it neither expands nor bursts the surrounding base material.
These high-performance bolts feature an advanced Elementech coating, providing superior anti-corrosion protection that has been rigorously tested to withstand 1,000 hours of salt spray exposure. The integrated flange serves as a fixed washer, effectively distributing the load beneath the bolt head for enhanced stability.
