Re: Smallest bolt when using Chemset?
Hi @Arthur1A,
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's great to have you join us.
Can you tell us a little more about your project? It might help members suggest alternative approaches.
My apologies, but please note that a couple of our resident Bunnings D.I.Y. experts are taking a well-earned break at the moment, so there might be a bit of a delay before one of the team can get back to you.
Let me see if some other helpful members might be able to share their thoughts in the meantime: @Nailbag, @TedBear and @Dave-1.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi @Arthur1A
My advice would be to contact the chemset tech support once you know your application of what your fixing.

Re: Chemset
Hi @Arthur1A,
Chemset is designed to be used with high-tensile threaded rod and reo-bar. There's no lower limit for thread size. However, testing is only done down to 8mm (the smallest anchor they do), and you can see more in their guide.
As mentioned, if you can tell us a bit more about your project, we can provide further assistance.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Mitchell
