Shop anchors

Verified material

Every batch is OES tested against ASTM B265 Grade 2 by the Thai-German Institute. Reports on file, available on request.

Proof loaded and break tested

Rings are proof loaded individually. Quicklinks are destructively sampled from each batch. Test figures published, not summarised.

Single-metal anchor sets

Mixing metals at a permanent anchor creates a galvanic couple, and the less noble component carries the corrosion. VERTA titanium sets are one metal from bolt to ring.

Titanium Grade 2

For routes bolted to last

Grade 2 titanium is not susceptible to the chloride stress corrosion cracking, sulphide attack or crevice corrosion that shorten fixed hardware life. Environment stops being the variable, which leaves wear and mechanical damage as the limits. Choose titanium wherever going back to replace the anchor is expensive, difficult, or unwelcome.
