ELKO-BIS Hook Bolt 16x550mm Galvanized

The ELKO-BIS 16x550mm hook bolt is a professional-grade fastener engineered for heavy-duty structural support and secure anchoring. Constructed from high-strength steel and finished with a protective galvanized coating, this bolt is designed to withstand demanding environmental conditions while maintaining structural integrity. Its 550mm length provides the necessary reach for deep-set installations, ensuring stability in masonry, concrete, or timber structures.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this hook bolt is its superior corrosion resistance, achieved through a high-quality zinc plating process that protects the steel from rust and oxidation in humid or outdoor environments. The robust 16mm diameter offers high load-bearing capacity, making it an ideal choice for critical installations where safety and durability are paramount. Its precise design allows for straightforward installation, reducing labor time while providing a reliable, long-term anchoring solution for various construction needs.

Suitable for

• Securing structural elements in masonry and concrete
• Mounting heavy-duty equipment or support beams
• Outdoor construction projects requiring weather-resistant fasteners
• Long-reach anchoring in thick wall sections

When it may not be suitable

This bolt is not recommended for applications involving highly acidic or saline environments, such as direct contact with seawater or chemical processing plants, where specialized stainless steel fasteners would be required. Additionally, it may not be suitable for installations in materials that cannot support the mechanical load of a 16mm diameter bolt.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 16 mm
• Length: 550 mm
• Material: Galvanized steel
• Finish: Zinc plated for corrosion resistance
• Type: Hook bolt

How to use

To install the ELKO-BIS hook bolt, first drill a hole of the appropriate diameter into the mounting surface. Ensure the hole is cleared of debris to allow for a secure fit. Insert the bolt through the component being mounted and into the prepared hole. Tighten the nut or secure the hook mechanism until the desired tension is achieved. Ensure that the substrate is capable of bearing the intended load before finalizing the installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required load capacity for your specific project
• Ensure the 550mm length is sufficient for your wall or material thickness
• Check the compatibility of the bolt diameter with your existing mounting holes
• Confirm that the galvanized finish meets the environmental requirements of your installation site

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and safety, always use appropriate washers and ensure the bolt is tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications. Regularly inspect the installation for signs of loosening or environmental degradation if used in exposed outdoor conditions.
