Hemlok is a bigger brother to the Avibulb range of fasteners. Available in 6.4 millimetre diameter Hemlok is possibly the strongest of the Avdel range of blind fasteners. Manufactured in both zinc plated steel and aluminium versions,
Hemlok has a large neatly formed tail portion which spreads the clamp force across an extended bearing area. This means that both shear and tension performance is impressive. The fully retained stem provides good weather resistance whilst giving the placed fastener a high quality appearance.
