The Dunnco ‘Scaffanka’ Ring Bolt. Fully galvanised to EN 1461. Each individual ring bolt is proof tested to 25kN before despatch. |
 |
The shear strength of the installed anchor is dramatically improved by setting the anchor as deep as possible - thus providing added resistance to bending and subsequent fracture. (Figs.1 and 2) When the ring bolt is removed the hole should be ‘plugged’, to prevent the ingress of water, by the use of a plastic cover cap. |

Ring bolts may be installed into the inner leaf of a structure. This requires the extension of the shank by the addition of a threaded adaptor and M16 threaded rod. (Fig.2) Ring bolts are intended for ‘Push-Pull’ loading,
ie tensile or compressive loads only. They should be incorporated
into the scaffold to avoid significant lateral loading. If
this is unavoidable then the bending strength of the ring
bolt is optimised by setting the anchor as deep as possible
while still giving adequate access for clips and fittings.
When used in the cladding application shown in Fig.2 the avoidance
of lateral loading is absolutely vital as this can cause cladding
units to fail. |
