How It Works
How It Works
The BoxBolt is a fully tested blind bolt fastener used to connect to tube steel or where access is restricted to only one side of the structural steel. It can be used with rectangular, square or circular sections, and only requires a clearance hole to be drilled to suit its outside diameter. The holes can be drilled off-site for new projects, or on-site for retro-fit applications.
The BoxBolt® Type C is physically tested with International Accreditation Service (IAS) certification which guarantees load value with the correct torque applied, as stated in Measurements & Specifications. Installation of BoxBolt requires any skilled labor and simple hand tools. Our unique BoxSok installation tool can be used for quicker installation.
