Anti Vandal Bolts

Leo Industries manufacture and supply anti vandal bolts engineered to reduce tampering, theft, and unauthorized removal in public and industrial installations. These security fasteners are designed with specialized drive profiles that cannot be opened using ordinary spanners or screwdrivers, making them suitable for locations where safety, reliability, and maintenance control are essential. Anti vandal bolts are widely used on street furniture, signboards, fencing, telecom cabinets, utility covers, lighting poles, public toilets, and equipment enclosures. With consistent machining, controlled hardness, and dependable thread accuracy, our anti vandal bolts help protect assets while supporting long service life in outdoor and high-traffic environments.


Working Principle & Process Flow

Anti vandal bolts work by combining high-strength fastener bodies with tamper-resistant head designs. The bolt is installed using a matching security bit or socket, and the unique drive pattern prevents removal with standard tools. Depending on the application, anti vandal bolts may use pin-hex, pin-torx, snake-eye, tri-wing, clutch, one-way, or breakaway head concepts. During installation, the bolt is tightened to the required clamp load, creating a strong joint. For authorized maintenance, the correct driver engages the head profile and allows controlled removal, while general vandal tools fail to gain traction, reducing damage and deterring theft.
