Blind Bolts

These bolts are great for fastening to hollow objects where access is impossible to the reverse side such as in tubular steel or box section. Blind bolts are mainly used in the construction industry for fastening objects to steelwork and are made from high tensile steel, zinc and yellow passivate coated for good protection against corrosion.

Blind Bolts are removable and reusable and no oversize holes or special tools are required. There is also a slot in the head to hold it with a screwdriver whilst the nut is tightened.
