Specifically suitable for concrete grades from C20/25 to C50/60, these bolts are crafted to ensure robust performance across a wide array of construction and engineering tasks.

Features and Benefits

Each anchor in this range is equipped with embedment depth markings, which facilitate precise installation by guiding users to the correct installation depth. This feature significantly enhances the ease of use and ensures optimal performance. The cold-formed body of the bolt ensures a high degree of dimensional accuracy, which is paramount for secure fittings.

Additionally, the innovative design allows for both installation and drilling to be executed directly through the fixture, streamlining the application process and reducing effort. Furthermore, these bolts are available in various thread sizes and lengths, providing flexibility to meet specific project requirements.

Typical Applications

The through fixing bolts are ideally suited for numerous applications, including:

- Cladding restraint systems

- Curtain wall installations

- Balustrading and barriers

- Handrails and racking

- Structural steel installations

- Bollard fixtures

This makes them an essential choice for contractors and builders looking for reliable anchoring solutions in various construction scenarios.

Performance Characteristics

The bolt’s unique expander design features six gripping components, which greatly enhances load-bearing capability and ensures stability under a range of conditions. The embedment depth markers not only aid in achieving the correct depth during installation but also reduce the effort required, ultimately leading to quicker project completion. The design allows for reduced anchorage depth, which minimises potential contact with reinforcement within the concrete, a critical consideration in many construction projects.

Additionally, the head marking provides a clear way to determine anchor length and setting depth post-installation, eliminating guesswork and fostering accuracy in execution.

The Rawl: R-XPT-12220/125 Throughbolt is zinc plated, ensuring resistance to corrosion and a longer service life, maintaining structural integrity over time. With a weight of just 0.4409 pounds, this product is lightweight yet durable.

In summary, the Rawlplug through fixing bolts represent a reliable solution for contractors needing an efficient and versatile anchoring system, adhering to all necessary industry standards, including ETA 17/0183 and EAD 330232-00-0601. This makes them an invaluable addition to any construction toolkit.
