Frequently asked questions
Is the BABO BOLT easy to install?
Yes, it's designed to be installed quickly and easily by a single operator. An installation guide is provided, and videos help you follow the steps.
What is the mechanical strength of BABO BOLT?
BABO BOLTs are designed to ensure optimum strength of the fixing in the tree. That's why we offer a BABO BOLT model for hardwoods and platforms, and a longer model for softwoods (because the wood is softer).

Of course. Our technical experts are available to study your specific needs and propose the best solutions for your fleet configuration.
