New Ancon Molabolt – The Next‑Generation Fixing for Masonry Support Steel Applications.

Leviat is pleased to announce the launch of the Ancon Molabolt, a new high‑performance fixing designed specifically for Ancon masonry support systems and steel fabrications. Developed to deliver exceptional installation speed, improved handling and verified engineering performance, the Ancon Molabolt represents the next evolution in fixing technology for the construction sector. 

Engineered as a faster and more intuitive alternative to traditional solutions, the Ancon Molabolt offers installers a streamlined, pin‑setting design that eliminates many of the common challenges associated with comparable products. Suitable for use with hollow sections such as RHS, SHS or where there is no access behind the steelwork structure to tighten the nut of a setscrew. The rapid pin‑setting mechanism, enables significantly faster installation and delivers major time savings on site, particularly across projects requiring a high volume of fixings. 

Although newly launched to the wider market, the Ancon Molabolt has already been trialled, adopted and proven across a diverse range of high‑profile projects over the past three years. Its performance and ease of installation have made it a preferred choice for leading contractors, including:

• Excel Phase 3, London – Lyons and Annoot
• City Point, London – Domis Construction
• Callender Farm School – Spellar Metcalfe 

These early deployments have demonstrated the Molabolt’s reliability, speed and installer‑friendly design in demanding, real‑world environments; providing invaluable feedback that has shaped the final product now being introduced to market. 

Martin Lyons, Lyons and Annoot, commented: 
“The Ancon Molabolt has quickly become our preferred fixing. It installs far faster than traditional options and is much easier for our teams to use on site. The improved design has saved time and reduced common installation issues across our projects. 

Developed with direct input from site teams, the Ancon Molabolt delivers:

• Intuitive, straightforward operation
• No requirement for a magnetic drill up to M12, improving cost, safety and productivity
• A knurled cone design that prevents spinning, overcoming a common installer frustration

The Ancon Molabolt has been engineered to deliver higher design resistance and is:

• SCI assessed for structural integrity
• ETA applied for, offering assurance of recognised European technical evaluation
• Available in a wider size range (up to M18)

These credentials provide specifiers, engineers and contractors with increased confidence when selecting fixings for demanding applications. 

The introduction of the Ancon Molabolt expands Leviat’s offering, providing customers with a new, advanced option alongside the long‑established Ancon Steelgrip. While Ancon Steelgrip remains a trusted, traditional solution, the Ancon Molabolt offers a next‑generation alternative for customers prioritising faster installation, wider sizing options or the convenience of a pin‑setting mechanism. Both products will continue to be available, ensuring customers can choose the fixing that best meets their project needs. 

With its blend of installation speed, verified engineering performance and user‑driven design, the Ancon Molabolt sets a new benchmark for steel application fixings, delivering the reliability and efficiency modern construction projects demand.
