Safe and conscious fastening: the BULL-VIT guide to choosing the right anchor

Ensuring secure fastenings requires experience, knowledge of materials, and attention to the specific application context.
That’s why BULL-VIT partners with professionals in construction, plant engineering, and carpentry to help them choose the best solutions, offering a full range of mechanical anchors, concrete bolts, and fastening systems for masonry and windows. This approach goes beyond the mere product, focusing on certified quality, immediate availability, and tailored technical support.

From support to load: the key criteria for proper fastening

Every fastening system is designed to meet specific usage conditions.

The first factor to consider is always the support type: cracked or non-cracked concrete, solid masonry, brick, or mixed materials. Along with this, you need to account for the load type (static or dynamic, tension or shear), edge distances, spacing, and environmental conditions.

For structural applications on concrete, where safety and regulatory compliance are crucial, the BCS concrete bolts with ETA Option 1 certification provide a reliable and high-performance solution. This certification allows use on cracked concrete, ensuring declared and verifiable performance in accordance with European standards.

For less demanding environments, such as plant engineering, light carpentry, or non-structural technical fixings, BAM mechanical anchors offer an ideal balance between ease of installation and load capacity. Their versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, reducing installation time without compromising on reliability.

Materials, treatments, and certifications: safety lies in the details

One of the key aspects that sets BULL-VIT apart is the focus on selecting the right materials and surface treatments—elements that are often overlooked but are essential for the durability of the fastening.

• White zinc coating is suitable for dry indoor environments and standard applications. 
• Hot-dip galvanization provides superior protection in outdoor or humid conditions. 
• A2 and A4 stainless steel are the ideal choice in the presence of corrosive agents, industrial atmospheres, or marine environments.

In addition, there is the important issue of ETA (European Technical Assessment) certifications, which are essential when the fastening serves a structural or safety function. ETA Option 1 and Option 7 meet different requirements, allowing designers and installers to choose the most appropriate solution based on the support material and the level of responsibility for the project.

The BULL-VIT experience: from the warehouse to the job site

BULL-VIT’s expertise goes beyond simply providing the product. The company supports the customer from the selection phase all the way through to installation, offering qualified technical assistance and efficient logistics, with a large stock availability and fast delivery times.

• BVS window screws.

These are all solutions designed to meet the main needs of installers and companies, combining ease of installation, long-term reliability, and regulatory compliance.

Choosing consciously to build safely

Choosing the right fastening is never a trivial decision: it is an integral part of structural safety and the overall quality of the work.
Relying on certified solutions, suitable materials, and a competent partner means reducing risks, optimizing work time, and ensuring long-lasting performance.
