  3. Remove dust and debris created while drilling as this will clog the passage and make the bolt to slip.
  4. Tighten the rawl bolt to the point it covers the internal threads, otherwise, it can get damaged during insertion. Now insert the rawl bolt into the hole. You can tap the rawl bolt with a hammer to properly insert it.
  5. Loosen the rawl bolt and place the object to be mounted on the application surface. Then tighten the rawl bolt sufficiently to achieve the best possible clamping strength.
