For the past 25 years, Sesto Fasteners Screwbolt anchor options have continued to evolve to meet the needs of New Zealand builders

Launched in New Zealand 25 years ago, the revolutionary Screwbolt has superseded the traditional Sleeve anchor, proving itself as the ideal anchor solution for many applications.

Screwbolt features include: 

  • A non-expansion design.
  • One-piece assembly.
  • Removability.
  • Reuseability.
  • Enhanced aesthetics. 

Screwbolts are also ideal for fixing formwork to concrete and can be used as a high-strength anchor point for steel cleats, handrails and bollards to concrete.

Being a Hex drive anchor, the Screwbolt can be power set using a battery or electric tool, making it fast and easy to install.

Blue Head Screwbolt

Sesto Fasteners’ Blue Head Screwbolt is now known as the bottom plate fixing of choice. 

Its distinctive blue head with full head marking offers easy inspection and traceability, helping ensure hassle-free approval as the correct anchor for bottom plates.

Sesto Fasteners continues to strive to improve the features of this remarkable anchor by refocusing its energy on its durability.

To coincide with the 25th anniversary of the Screwbolt, Sesto Fasteners is now offering the Bottom Plate M10 range – an incredible offer featuring the standard Mechanical Galvanized finish as well as an additional Ruspert topcoat in an ALL-BLUE finish, providing improved corrosion resistance.

Ideal for close-to-edge applications, the Sesto Screwbolt has been independently tested and is a suitable solution for proprietary bracing, complying with New Zealand standard Timber framed buildings NZS3604 2011. 

Three sizes are available for bottom plate applications:

  • M10 x 140MM GALV for perimeter bracing applications.
  • M10 x 150MM GALV for perimeter bracing applications when using a bottom plate packer.
  • M10 x 200MM GALV for double plate perimeter bracing applications.

On your next visit to your local PlaceMakers store, look out for the distinctive ALL-BLUE Bottom Plate anchor in your fastener aisle.

The ALL-BLUE double corrosion protected Screwbolts are sold individually, or in a Trade 50 pack with a square washer. 

The new ALL-BLUE Screwbolt will be your anchor of choice for many years to come.
