Product Overview:

The ForgeFix M6 50mm Lightning Bolt is designed for efficient and secure anchoring into masonry and concrete. This self-threading bolt features a Torx-compatible head that provides excellent control during installation. With its unique Elementech coating, it offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, having been salt spray tested for up to 1,000 hours.

The bolt's innovative design eliminates the need for sleeves or plugs, making it perfect for both temporary and permanent applications. The Lightning Bolt excels in close-to-edge or through-fixing applications, as it does not expand, preventing damage to the surrounding base material.

Its flange head serves as a built-in washer, evenly distributing the load beneath the bolt head. This bolt is suitable for use in a variety of masonry substrates, including concrete, brick, hollow blocks, and more.

Whether securing battens, balustrades, handrails, machinery, or other installations, the ForgeFix Lightning Bolt offers reliable performance across many applications.

Frequently Asked Questions:

• What is the purpose of the flange head on the bolt?
  The flange head acts as a built-in washer, distributing the load evenly under the bolt, which helps prevent surface damage and ensures a secure fix.
• Can these bolts be used in outdoor applications?
  Yes, the Elementech coating provides excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for use in outdoor environments or areas exposed to moisture.
• Is any special tool required for installation?
  To achieve the best results, you'll need a Torx drive insert bit that matches the size of the bolt's head. This helps ensure a secure and efficient installation.
• Can I use these bolts in soft or porous materials?
  The bolts are ideal for masonry, concrete, brick, and hollow blocks. However, they might not perform as well in extremely soft or porous materials. It's best to use them in solid masonry substrates.
• Are these bolts reusable?
  While the bolts are designed for permanent fixing, they can be removed and reused if necessary, provided they haven't been overtightened or damaged during the initial installation.
• How do I know what size Torx bit to use?
  Always match the Torx bit size to the specific bolt size. For the M6 x 50mm Lightning Bolt, a T30 Torx driver is typically the correct size.
