Avdel® Avbolt®
Designed for use in heavy-duty fastening applications such as construction, container, railway, mining, and bridge building. The Avbolt® heavy-duty fastener is a structural blind fastener with high strength and tamper resistance.
Our Avbolt® line offers high tensile and shear strength, which is normally only possible with non-blind lockbolts, and adds in the versatility of single-sided installation. It is ideal for areas with restricted access.
The Avbolt® fastener is simple to use, with fast, positive single-sided installation, requiring minimal operator skill. The locking feature creates a vibration-resistant joint and prevents loosening stems.
