Cable Bolt Expansion Shell Type_edited.j

Specifications

The Expansion Shell Cable Bolt is a spring-loaded shell that can be automatically set at installation.

The cable shell can be used for the following medium soft to very hard rock applications:

    • Pre-stressed cable bolting in large span areas

    • Pre-stressed cable bolting in the hanging wall

    • Cable lacing anchors and others.

 

Features

    • Cable can be tensioned immediately

    • Easy & quick installation

    • Tensioned cable provides immediate long tendon ground support

    • Cable can provide pre-tensioned active support throughout its length

    • Greatly improves installation & cycle time, whether pre or post grouted.

Plain Cable Bolt

Cable Bolt Plain_edited.jpg

Specifications

Cable Bolt

The Plain Cable Bolt is made of grade 1860MPa steel wire/s, which can be designed into a plain cable bolt or a bulbed cable bolt.

​

Functions

The Cable Bolt provides a higher tensile strength, anti-shearing capacity and incomparable bending capacity, and also prevents the lateral movement of the Strata.

​

Features & Advantages

  • Available in single strand or twin strand configuration

  • "Fish-hooks" fitted to the top of the cables for retention prior to grouting

  • Resin can also be used for immediate point anchorage and grout for permanent support

Plain Cable Bolt

Accessories

  • "Fish-Hooks"

  • Expansion Shell

  • Barrel & Wedge

  • Grouting Tube

  • Breathing Tube

  • Bearing Plate​

​Application

  • Mines

  • Tunnels

  • Slopes

  • Sites where ground support is required

Length & Package

  • Length: 500mm to 6200mm in pieces or in coils

  • Package: 20 pcs per bundle

  • As per the customers requirements​

Installation Process

  • The nature of the ground must be assessed.

  • Drill a borehole in the selected location suitable for the bolt diameter and bolt length. The length of the borehole must be 200mm to 500mm shorter than the bolt itself.

  • Attach a breather tube to the full length of the bolt. The breather tube must protrude out about two meters from the hole collar.

  • Attach about one meter of grout tube to the end of the cable bolt with a sufficient tail provided to connect to the grout pump.

  • Insert the cable bolt and seal the hole to eliminate loss of grout when pumping.

  • Connect the grout tube to the grout pump and place the breather tube into a container of water when pumping starts. You will see that in the water container air bubbles will exhaust from the breather tube. When the hole is completely full of pumped grout the exhausted air bubbles will discontinue.

  • The Cable Bolt can be tensioned after the grout has cured.

Bulbed Cable Bolt

Bulbed Cable Bolt_edited_edited.png

Specifications

Cable Bolt

The Cable Bolt is made of grade 1860MPa steel wire/s, which is manufactured into Plain Cable Bolts and Bulbed Cable Bolts.

​

Functions

Cable Bolts provide higher tensile strength, anti-shearing capacity and incomparable bending capacity,

and they also prevent the lateral movement of strata.

​

Features & Advantages

  • At the top of the Bulbed Cable Bolt there are three bulbs to reinforce the resin mixing, achieve excellent point anchorage and pretension

  • The bulbs can be modified in frequency and diameter based on customer’s requirements. The diameter is 21mm~38mm

  • Plain or Bulbed options are available, bulbs are available at either 0.5m or 1.0m spacing

  • Available in single strand or twin strand

  • "Fish-hooks" are fitted to the top of cables for retention prior to grouting

  • Resin can be applied for immediate point anchorage and grout for permanent support
