How to Fix Bashed Bolts
Added 2021-05-22 13:30:01 +0000 UTCIf bolts are damaged or there are mistakes or in order to leave less trace, it can be nice to bury an old hole under the P of a new glue in you are installing. We tested in this video if "too much epoxy" was bad as the recommendation is just to use only a small amount. It is better to use the right size hole as it saves a ton of glue but we wanted to know if it was super good enough if you didn't. Spoiler Alert: Our tests showed it was fine.
All tests were done with Liquid Roc 500
Fixe Hely Tension (3/8" bolt in a 5/8" hole) 29.86kn, 30.30kn, 28.10kn - all bolts snapped
Fixe hely Shear (3/8" bolt in a 5/8" hole) 31.68kn, 30.36kn, 33.82kn - all bolts snapped
Double holes with 10mm Solid Leg from Bolt Products 52.38kn, 47.50kn, 50.86kn
For reference, carabiners break around 22kn.
