Stuart Bew of Barratt Steel Buildings talks of his experiences in using the Molabolt.
"The Molabolt was recommended to us by word of mouth.
So far we have used it in two locations, the first to solve a problem on an entrance to a large retail premises where the architect required a smooth, smart exterior.
We would normally have used welding, but this would not have been a satisfactory finish.
The Molabolt allowed us to bolt in to a blind section, providing a neat and professional job." "On the second project we had to build right up to another building for the first fixing into a blind situation.
Molabolt did this perfectly.
"The Molabolt is first class, I can see it being used more and more as the word spreads." "What I like about the Molabolt is that it's incredibly easy to use.
Just one person, with no special skills can fit the Molabolt in the same time as it takes for a standard bolt.
It doesn't require any special tools and it solves problems that would normally be labour intensive and difficult." Stuart Bew is a Site Manager at Barratt Steel Buildings.
Molabolt keeps the dough rising at British Bakeries In the bread industry speed is the essence and when Chris Fletcher learnt about the Molabolt he realised here was a solution to his problem.
As the Engineering Supervisor at British Bakeries, Nottingham, it is his responsibility to ensure that any breakdowns on the four production lines are fixed as fast as possible.
"Every minute counts in the bread baking industry," says Chris "and when I saw the Molabolt I could see how repair time could be reduced massively." Chris goes on to explain, "Normally it could take 20 minutes or more to change a bolt.
It first needs drilling out, then a Helicoil needs fitting before replacing the bolt.
A Molabolt could do the job in less than a minute or two." Advanced Bolting Solutions, the manufacturers of the Molabolt provided British Bakeries with handy kits with a range of sizes, ready for that emergency.
The range presently consists of three types the Threaded Bypass Bolt, the Peg Anchor and the Anti-Vibration Bolt.
These are available in a range of popular sizes.
A Tailored Solutions Service to help solve problems that can't be resolved by the standard Molabolt range is also available from Advanced Bolting Solutions, the manufacturers of the Molabolt.
Advanced Bolting Solutions believe that the Molabolt has a major role to play in many industries around the globe.
Their mission is to expand the range and the Tailored Solutions Service to cover as many applications as possible so that the advantages of this innovative new bolt are widely available.
Each new addition to the range is exhaustively tried and tested to the highest standards.
Molabolt is patent protected to keep inferior copies from undermining its reputation, so that its benefits can be appreciated by as many people as possible.
