Hollo-Bolt - Safe Working Loads
c) Flush Fit
The tables above state the safe working loads with a 5:1 Factor of Safety and should be used for secondary
applications. For primary design, please consult the guide Joints in Steel Construction - Simple Connections.
The guide provides design guidance for the use of Hollo-Bolt and gives essential information for structural steelwork
connections for use in buildings designed by the Simple Method i.e. braced frames where connections carry mainly
shear and axial loads only. To obtain further details on the Simple Oonnections guide please contact:

1) Sies M16 and M20 reuire the thickness of the outer ply (min t) to be at least 8mm. If necessary, spacer washers should be used beneath the collar to increase the thickness to 8mm.
2) The Hollo-Bolt can be used on a wide ariety of steel hollow shape sections safe working loads shown are based on use in S275 structural hollow section. The safe working loads, in both tension
and shear, are applicable to the Hollo-Bolt only. Failure of the section, particularly on those with thin walls and a wide chord face, could occur at a lower gure and its strength should be checked by
a ualied structural engineer.

Sizes M16 and M20, known as the Hollo-Bolt (HOF), feature a patented High Clamping Force mechanism to produce three times more clamping
force than the same sized product without the mechanism. The signifcance of clamping force and the superior performance of Lindapters unique
Hollo-Bolt (HOF) is illustrated on page 40.
