Tornado Construction Products have launched Tornado Twister, a concrete bolt which offers a strong removable fixing for many substrates.
The Twister is both re-usable and suitable for all concrete types as well as an ideal fixing for stone, brickwork, marble, hollow pot material and most construction materials.
Designed for medium-heavy duty use and available in two head designs, the Tornado Twister can be used in a wide range of projects including: aerial installation, alarm systems, extractor fans, fencing, handrails, machine installation, boilers and many more applications.
The thread design of Twister allows it to cut a strong deep grove into the substrate with improved cutting speed and the bolt’s thread formulation offers high loads. It can also be used for cracked concrete applications.
As Twister is expansion-free it can be used closer to the edge than conventional expansion anchors. Tornado’s re-useable anchor also has a heavy, all-weather coating to protect it against the elements. The Ruspert coating has been tested to withstand over 500 hours of a ‘salt spray test’, giving it a serious advantage over other concrete bolt products.
