Designed for hollow section steel with limited access

Compliant Blind Fastener

Fixes From One Side
No Welding Required
ETA Assessed
All sections and shapes
Hot Dipped Galvanized

Fastened with access from only one side delivering high shear and tensile load capacities

UNI-BOLT™ is a compliant blind fastener for fixing into hollow section steel. Simply drill a clearance hole, insert UNI-BOLT™, and tighten to the specified torque. The sleeve expands out and bites into the inside of the hollow section resulting in a compliant steel connection.

What you're getting

For Hollow Section Steel Connections

One bolt suits Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS), Square Hollow Sections (SHS) and Round Hollow Sections, providing a versatile solution for common steel-to-steel connections on site.

No Welding or Through-Bolting Required

Install from one side with one person. No welder, hot-works permit or fire watch required. Less labour, fewer steps and a faster installation.

ETA Assessed, NCC Compliant Blind Fastener

Unlike competitors, UNI-BOLT™ has a European Technical Assessment. An independent testing report, validating the performance of the fastener, giving engineers, builders and installers greater confidence.

Built for the Outdoors

Hot Dip Galvanised finish offers excellent durability in harsh environments.

Fast Install. No specialised tools. Validated Performance.

Drill the Hole

Drill the clearance hole through the face of the steel section.

Insert the Bolt

Push the UNI-BOLT™ through the fixture and into the hollow steel section.

Torque It Up

Tighten to the specified torque and the sleeve expands inside the hollow section, creating a strong geometric interlock.

Job Done

Eliminate welding, fire watch and re-galvanising. Reduce downtime and labour with a more efficient steel connection.

Who is UNI-BOLT™ for?

Strength assessed and quality assured

Your questions, answered

  • Why can't I just fix a bracket onto hollow steel?

    A closed RHS or SHS may not have rear access to position a backing nut to tighten onto. Without a fixing designed for one-side access, crews either weld, strap or tap, which are time consuming, require specialised tools, and deliver unreliable performance.

  • Why not just weld it?

    Welding requires surface preparation where corrosion protection is sanded off steel, needs a hot-works permit and a fire watch, and requires painting or recoating over bare steel afterwards. UNI-BOLT™ avoids those extra steps. Simply drill the hole, install from one side and tighten to the specified torque.

  • Is UNI-BOLT™ ETA assessed?

    Yes. UNI-BOLT™ is an ETA assessed structural fastener with validated load data.

  • What hollow sections does UNI-BOLT™ suit?

    One bolt suits Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS), Square Hollow Sections (SHS) and Round Hollow Sections, providing a versatile solution for common steel-to-steel connections on site.

  • How fast is installation?

    Three steps: drill the hole, insert the bolt, torque it up to spec. No welder, no fire watch, no re-coat afterwards.

  • Where can I buy UNI-BOLT™?
