WARNING: DO NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM TORQUE SETTINGS. ENSURE ANCHOR IS IN THE FULLY OPEN POSITION BEFORE APPLYING TORQUE OR THE PIN WILL SHEAR.
Shear strength was determined across the threaded area. Should the shear plane fall below the minimum fixing thickness (across the hollow section) shear strength will be reduced and must be recalculated. Performance data listed is the ultimate failure load. BLIND BOLT North America recommends an appropriate factor of safety when incorporating the Blind Bolt products into your application. Additional testing available upon request.
