Hello,
I am looking at different climbing methods and trying to determine if this bolt method is worth trying. I understand the method behind the bolt insulation as far as predrill with cordless or use a hand drill. My confusion lies in inserting the bolts into the holes. Do you have to screw them in or do they just slide in the hole? It looked like on Nutterbusters video the carbon bolts don't have threads. I am a little leery of the bolt sliding out of the hole. I guess i could just go pickup some grade 8 bolts and grab my cordless drill to try it out. besides my question above, any other words of advise on using these? Thanks.
