Cable Bolts incorporate much higher strength than traditional bolts with incomparable flexibility to adjust to the movement of the earth’s strata. We are an authorised distributor of Australian mining industry renowned Garford™ Cable Bolts. Garford products are manufactured to quality accredited standards ISO:9001 at facilities in WA, NSW and QLD.
The Garford cable bolt range includes:
PLATES
We can supply a comprehensive range of plates for use with Cable bolts. Typical plates include:
ACCESSORIES
Accessories include various barrel and wedges to suit either 15.2mm cable bolts or a 21.8 mm cable bolt. Barrel and Wedges consist of either two or three triangular shaped wedges placed inside a case hardened cylindrical barrel. Used to secure plates to the rock surface and in some instances to provide pre-tension to a resin point anchored cable bolt.
Other accessories include grout, breather tube and several hole plugging products.
LOKSET RESIN CAPSULES
The Lokset resin system provides rapid anchoring of the bolt to the surrounding strata. The rotation of the bolt during installation ruptures the capsule, shreds the skin and mixes the two components transforming the resin mastic into a solid anchor. Resin point anchoring and bulbs to assist resin capsule mixing.

M24 Rock Bolts (also known as coal bolts) have been developed for use in point anchored or fully encapsulated roof and rib bolting applications.
Manufactured with a rolled M24 x 3.0 mm pitch right hand thread and a ribbed surface profile. Suitable for high load transfer and easy resin and grout application. Supplied complete with an anti-friction washer, dome washer and hexagonal 36 mm drive nut.
Recommended for use in 27 – 28 mm diameter holes. For >28mm diameter holes it is recommended to use Minova Secura bolt range.
Available in either standard “S” mild steel grade or extra high tensile “X” HSAC840 superior steel grade. X steel grade provides greater potential performance in conditions subject to stress corrosion cracking. Multiple lengths, diameters, pin and paddle configurations are available.
