Thanks, now every mo mo making $200K a year with a bright green belay tag from the ole puppy mill (aka climbing gym) is going to go out and buy a Hilti and start bolting beautiful trad lines/cracks because sport climbing is so much cooler. I cant tell you how grateful I am for this video.
I just keep them in my pocket but it's different down there. Love yalls stuff got some bolts from yall awhile back and are going to make a big push using them here in a bit
Hello to all the team at FIXE, first of all let me tell you that I love your products! I have several things from you actually (haha real fan!). I've been looking for this lanyard all over the internet and nobody seems to sell it in Europe, when is it coming out to the stores?
Im 100% certain a stainless hammer and a stainless nut is absolutly overkill. I work in the fab buisness and have done tons of stainless work, cross contamination dont happen in seconds, it takes months or years, so really only if you use a galvanized washer or some other bullshit. Also ive never seen stainless hammer or a stainless nut. Most shit i got is galvanized and cromangan my hammer is tool steel and my opineon is stated above.
Stainless hammer is not required but non stainless nut? Years long contact with galvanized nut would do no good to the bolt (corrosion). You usually buy the bolt with stainless nut as one package.
@@leagoo52 sorry translation issue, i dont mean the threaded nut, i mean the bit for tighning the nut. german "nuss" wchich directly translates to nut.
i would agree if there was any reason, but there isnt. use a stainless hamer if you want but dont tell anyone they should aswell. ive litteraly got a bolting permit from fischer and not even they say you should use a stinless hammer. and let me tell you, those guys really care about shit like that. also most everything i install with bolts is life depending, balconies, railings ect. also ive seen 20yo stainless bolts installed with steel tools, that have absolutly 0 corrosion, also if the nut has a tiny amount of surface rust the bolt is in no way compromised. to be really sure you need to use glue ins anyways.
@HochstartHarry it depends on the area you're in. If you live by the ocean the salt in the air will tend to corrode a multitude of metals if not treated properly. The hammer is a bit of a stretch but everything else is a legit precautionary measure that should be followed.
Why didn't you explain the important factors like: loading angle of the bolt, avoiding sideloading or torquing of the bolt, emphasising more on cleanliness of the hole... Your expansion anchor video was much much more detailed than this one.
i heard you aren't supposed to use a torque wrench to ratchet and tighten things down, just use it at the end to torque it to spec, but i could be wrong, cheers.
It won't hurt the torque wrench any to do the ratcheting and so as to not go passed the torque (and so as to not need multiple tools) it's easiest just to do it with the torque wrench. Folks just don't like turning a bunch of bolts on a car with their nice ones so they use different ones to preserve their expensive tool, but it doesn't hurt the torque wrenches at all.
If this is an instruction video and you talk about torquing the bolt correct, why are you over torquing it so much??? You can clearly hear the click the first time and he is still taking two more turns!!!!
I have just purchased a whole bunch of these. They are certified and Fixe is a reputable brand. They haven't arrived yet and am happy to comment once I receive them. I am curious though why there are so little reviews. No English promotional videos and so forth. Is it just a lack of marketing? Normally one always finds reviews on line. Either bad or good but with the oriona I think there are 2 comments on the entire web. One which thinks they amazing and the other who wrought they should have bought the longer dog bone. . . From what I am seeing and the limited research I have done, it seems these draws are tremendously underrated and I hope I am right as I just risked getting some without ever physically seeing them. I know they made a quick debut on epic TV where I purchased them from, but again not any writeups or online manuals or anything like that. . . . Just thought I'd put it out there and see if anyone else has any thoughts on the Orions.
Hello Bjorn. You can check all the technical info here: www.fixeclimbing.com/en/carabiners/114-194-orion-v2-8436020412578.html#/115-size_long-24cm/116-packing_unit-4
Muy instructivo el vídeo. Para las reuniones con tensores que no se puede girar el tensor por estar conectado a la cadena, cómo se procedería?, gracias
ara las reuniones, exactamente de la misma forma, respetando las distancias de colocación. Para más información consultar el Manual de Usuario de las reuniones disponible en la web www.fixeclimbing.com
There’s no specific mention about this in the Dynamic Ropes standard (EN892) and test methods. In any case, the rope will withstand a static load of a climber+equipment, yes.
Este video da miedo. Todo mal hecho literalmente. Los parabolt instalados mal, los anclajes químicos sin girar en el orificio....un desastre que sea video oficial Fixe
What's the purpose? Looks like a good system for temporary bolts while installing a route. Looks like garbage for permanent installations. Also is this a technical manual for the installation of anchors or a short promotional piece on the ease of installation. It lacks in the former.
