Split Sets
Overview
Normet Split Sets are high-strength friction bolts designed for rapid and effective rock reinforcement in underground mining and tunnelling. These tubular steel bolts are installed by driving them into a slightly undersized borehole, creating an interference fit that generates immediate radial pressure against the rock. This simple, mechanical anchoring method eliminates the need for resin or grout, reducing installation time and improving operational efficiency. Split Sets are typically installed in tunnelling, mining, and civil engineering applications where temporary and immediate rock reinforcement is needed. Galvanised options are available for corrosion protection in aggressive environments.
