Pull testing on the split set friction anchors proves their superiority in anchoring themselves inside the drilled hole. Once the product has been installed, the spring loading allows the anchor to adapt to minor changes in the ground conditions. This is an important advantage over inelastic bolts that are unable to adapt to changing ground conditions.

The split set is a popular choice due to its easy installation. Once the hole is drilled, the driver tool drives the anchor into the wall. Installation time is typically less than a minute and there is no waiting time for grout to set, no tightening or torqueing and no ongoing maintenance is needed after installation. This saves time, labour and additional grouting or resin expenses.

Split Set® Friction Rock Stabilizers - Rock Bolts for Reliable Ground Support Split Set® friction rock stabilizers are manufactured by International Rollforms, Inc. for underground or above ground applications in mines, tunnels, slopes, or wherever reliable ground support is needed. Our friction rock bolts produce superior holding power due to their unique design that exerts pressure against the rock over its full contact length immediately upon installation. When ground shift occurs, our rock bolts conform to the changing ground conditions. The result is a tight grip that actually grows stronger with time and ground movements, providing reliable ground support. It never needs tightening.

Our friction rock stabilizers are a simple system requiring only 2 parts, a tube and bearing plate. Fast, easy installation takes usually less than a minute - just drill and drive. Split Set® stabilizers come in 3 models. They are available in lengths and sizes to meet your needs and are made of standard, galvanized, or stainless steel.
