Basket Wall
Posted on Tuesday, August 10th, 2010 at 11:13 amhow do I strengthen drilled holes in a block wall to support my basket ball hoop?
I have drilled holes in a block waal and attached a basket ball hoop. However the wall has not provided adequate support for the fixings and the hoop is loose. Is there any product I can put in the holes to increase the grip of the fixings?
you could try using some resin exploding bolts.
these are available from firms like Screwfix etc.
the bolt as the name explains is a long bolt that has a hollow in the centre of it which is filled with an epoxy resin, you drill the hole in the wall to a set dept as listed on the instruction sheet, when you put the bolt into the hole it looks as though you have not drilled the hole deep enough, this is where the trick comes in, you then hit the end of the bolt with a hammer, this explodes or fractures the hollow walls of the bolt and releases the resin into the hole, the resin then soaks into the walling block, you then have to wait for the epoxy to cure for the time stated in the instruction leaflet before tightening up the bolt to secure your basketball hoop.
I have used this type of fixing in both the old breeze blocks and the modern thermalite block walling to good effect, and the scouts in my old scout group are still using the shackles that we fastened into the scout hut wall using this method for securing their pioneering poles ten years later.
