Hilti Kwik Bolt 3 Mechanical Anchor



TULSA, (Okla.) - February 7, 2005 - The next generation of Hilti Kwik Bolts, the Hilti Kwik Bolt 3 Mechanical Anchor is raising the industry standard for stud anchors - again. With an improved wedge design and higher strength base material, the Kwik Bolt 3 has the best independent approval ratings in its class and is the best overall stud anchor on the market with performance values that exceed or meet its predecessor, the Kwik Bolt II.

Available in sizes ranging from ¼ to 1 inch in diameter and available in electrogalvanized carbon, hot dipped galvanized, SS 304 and SS 316, the Kwik Bolt 3 Mechanical Anchor satisfies a wide range of fastening applications in a variety of environments. It's also available as a standard thread length bolt for high shear load applications and as a long (full) thread length (up to 7 inches thread length) bolt for greater application flexibility in all environmental conditions.

To save contractors time and money, the Hilti Kwik Bolt 3 incorporates unique design features that ease stud anchor installation, including a dog point impact section, which helps prevent thread damage during installation, and a rounded end for easy anchor insertion - even around rebar. Shallow embedment depths, enabled by the improved wedge design, mean less drilling time, which also helps save time and money on every job.

As a special customer incentive for a limited time in 2005, customers who buy 8 boxes of Kwik Bolt 3 receive a multi tool, incorporating pliers, wire cutters, knife, scissors, screwdriver and can/bottle opener in one tool, (a $40 value) at no additional charge.
