At RSC Ekusasa Mining, we specialise in high-quality steel-based underground support systems engineered for the most demanding mining environments. Our steel solutions are designed to provide rock reinforcement, worker safety, and structural integrity in hard and soft rock conditions, making RSC Ekusasa a trusted partner for mining operations across Southern Africa and beyond.

Comprehensive Steel Support Solutions

Our steel product range covers the full spectrum of underground support systems, tailored for diverse mining applications:

  • HRB® Bolts – Hollow steel bolts ideal for resin or grout installations, providing high tensile strength and optimal load transfer for larger diameter holes in hard rock mines. Available in various lengths, couplers, and coatings such as galvanised or DiSTeK™.
  • Katbar® – Hot-rolled, fully threaded steel bars with a twin-start thread, designed for applications requiring re-tensioning and precise anchoring. Compatible with cementitious grout, chemical resin, and mechanical anchoring.
  • Mechanical Anchored Rock Bolts – Installed with expansion shells, providing immediate active support and versatile combinations to meet site-specific requirements.
  • Resin Anchored Rock Bolts – Ready-to-install assemblies that ensure stiff, cost-effective support with improved anchorage in friable ground.
  • Split Sets – High-tensile, open-slotted steel tubes providing instant frictional support, ideal for mechanised or handheld installation.
  • Welded Mesh, W-Straps, and Osro Straps – Optimised for areal coverage, stabilising fractured rock between installed bolts.
  • Accessories – Pigtail Eye Bolts, Load Indicators, Combo Plates, and more, designed for ease of installation, monitoring, and safety.
