What is thunderbolt

The original and best selling all purpose anchor

The one and only Thunderbolt is the original self-tapping anchor with the power to be used on a whole range of construction materials, including concrete, stone, brick and block. The threaded anchor and self-tapping action allows for safe anchorage, with the substrate becoming the nut to the bolt - applying a tried and tested method for metals and wood to a broader selection of materials. A truly versatile anchor, the Thunderbolt can be installed nearer to edges and closer together at varying embedment depths, providing a stress-free fixing. Installation is quick and easy, making it the ideal general purpose anchor, even on temporary jobs as its completely removable. Using standard sized drill bits, the Thunderbolt is the cost effective fix for any job.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Simply drill a hole the same size as the Thunderbolt™ into the material. Ensure the hole is a little deeper than the bolt to allow for dust - see technical info.

  • Remove any loose dust from the hole.

  • Screw in the Thunderbolt with a socket wrench. Apply a slight downward pressure to start the self-tapping action, as you would with a woodscrew.

  • Tighten the Thunderbolt to secure the fixture in place.

  • Job done!
