DURA-LOCK is the ultimate system to quickly attach penning and equipment to concrete slats. DURA-LOCK allows you to bolt penning and equipment down from the top with no protruding bolt to injure animals. Made from Dupont Super-Tuff Nylon, DURA-LOCK provides superior impact and wear resistance. DURA-LOCK also eliminates the need to cut and grind off bolts.
DURA-LOCK can be installed as easily as sliding it in the slot opening, turning and pulling the lock into place, then tightening the bolt. DURA-LOCK requires a one-inch wide opening for inserting the lock through the top. If you are unable to insert from the top you can insert from the bottom. A 3/8″ hole or opening would be required for the bolt. Don’t over tighten; hand tightening is all that is required to secure the bolt. Tool setting must not exceed 35-foot pounds of torque.
DURA-LOCK is designed with a hex nut embedded inside the Dupont Super-Tuff Nylon. Each DURA-LOCK includes a 3/8″ X 4″ stainless steel bolt and washer. DURA-LOCK Fasteners are conveniently packaged and sold in quantities of 100.
DURA-LOCK has been designed for concrete slat application and may not be appropriate for use in all other applications.
