Replacing Glue In Climbing Bolts - Does a blow torch work?
🕑 Added 2022-06-11 15:24:53 +0000 UTCSometimes bolts get in the way of random swinging hammers. We explored two ways of heating up glue in bolts in an effort to remove them so you can reuse the hole. I'm not convinced this is a good idea. What do you think?
Don't try this if it is fire season. Don't try this without bringing a way to cut the bolt when you are done in case it doesn't work, because it has been compromised. Cutting and replacing the bolt right next to the old bolt is one solution as you can see here https://youtu.be/8pgFzVqVEJY
