3. Applications
Flat bearing plates are commonly used in mining and underground support applications that require stable load transfer and rock/roof control. Examples of these applications include but are not limited to:
4. Advantages
Flat bearing plates are used to help distribute the load of the bolt head or nut to a larger surface area. This helps reduce pressure points on the rock surface and can increase the performance of your support system. Compared to standard washers, flat bearing plates offer a larger surface area for contact and better support capabilities. They are ideal for roof bolting systems used in underground mines, tunnels and other ground support applications.
5. Custom Options
We can supply flat bearing plates according to customer drawings and project requirements.
Available customization includes:
6. FAQ
6.1 What is a Flat Bearing Plate used for?
Flat bearing plates are typically used along with roof bolts, rock bolts or anchor bolts. They help distribute load and increase support in mines, tunnels and underground construction.
6.2 What kind of material is used for flat bearing plates?
Flat bearing plates can be made from a variety of different materials but are commonly made from high strength steel like HSLA 65.
6.3 What sizes are available?
We offer flat bearing plates ranging from 4″ x 4″ to 8″ x 8″. Custom sizes can also be made to order based on your engineering drawings.
6.4 What hole diameter options are available?
Bolt hole diameters can range from 1/2″ to 2″. The diameter of the hole will depend on your application and what size bolt you will be using.
6.5 Can flat bearing plates be custom made?
Yes. We offer custom flat plate sizes, thickness, hole diameter, material grade, surface finishing and packaging.
