Placing a Glue In Bolt | Adhesive Anchors | Rock Climbing Anchors

Описание: Adhesive anchors (aka “glue ins”) are an increasingly popular option for stewards who are maintaining and upgrading climbing hardware resources. These are the strongest and lowest maintenance bolts available to climbers, but special care must be taken to ensure proper placement and longevity.

When correctly placed, adhesive anchors are extremely strong, have an impressive life span, and work well in softer rock types. Careful work is critical for safe and long-lasting placements. Always follow manufacturers specifications for adhesive storage and application when placing glue-in anchors.

The ASCA is a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to maintaining and replacing climbing anchors and providing education for climbers and rebolters.

Each tax-deductible donation supports our work supplying bolts and installing them in place of aging hardware at climbing areas across the country. We have an extensive network of crag stewards and encourage experienced equippers to contact us for hardware to use in their replacement efforts.

Since 1998, the ASCA has supplied over 85,000 bolts and 42,000 rappel/lower off anchors for maintenance work on popular rock climbs.

Thank you for supporting rebolting efforts and education.
