THE SUPRAFIX [SUB150] UNDERWATER FIXING TOOL

THE SUPRAFIX [SUB150] UNDERWATER FIXING TOOL


The SUPRAFIX is a new high efficiency underwater fixing tool mainly intended for underwater diving works for both the Oil & Gas Industries and the Civil Engineering Industries.

It allows the quick and reliable fastening of threaded studs and drive pins to carry out permanent anchorings and assemblies on metal structures but also on reinforced concrete structures.

Thanks to its very robust design, it can be used up to 150m deep. It can directly be reloaded under water without need for going up to the surface.

Its power is important and easily adjustable. With this, it can cover a wide range of possible applications.

Thanks to its particular neat ergonomic design, its compactness, its lightness and its autonomy,the SUPRAFIX is the ideal tool for any rapid intervention in any underwater environment.

Fasteners:

The fasteners are made from high strength steels. The fasteners are available in alloy steel or SupraSteel stainless steel.

The SupraSteel fasteners have specifically been designed for the installation of sacrificial anodes
