Garage tie down Halfen bolts

[paulhelenwilko]

Hello all.
I am trying to obtain some additional halfen bolts (just the bolts, don't need the eyes) to fit a hymer garage track. Pictures of the original :


I have found similar but not exact. Halfen bolts seem to be used a lot in the building industry but I cannot find any the same shape as these.
Brownhills are selling for a very generous £24 for 4. (These are obviously the gold plated and diamond encrusted version).

I wondered if anyone else had found a replacement or source ?

Yes I found a company in Germany that sells the bolt but because of Brexit no doubt they only deliver to a German address. I'm lucky my daughter lives in Germany. I then got the ring nuts i got from GS fixings gsproducts.co.uk and washers off eBay. It all worked out at about £3 quid each. I thought there was a chap on the Hymer Facebook page HOG who sold them.

Try German eBay or Amazon. I did find a German builders merchants who sold them in small numbers, but as I said only to Germany

Found these on e-bay, I was a little concerned because there is a shoulder that may have prevented it seating properly.


Tried it out and it fits very snug. The Bolt head is not quite as wide as the Hymer original, but I think for my application it will be fine.


Thankyou for your help and advice.

Paul.

The second “nuts” with the ridges are from electrical unistrut, obtainable at electrical wholesalers, but may need to be ordered
