The VERTA U-bolt is a glue-in anchor bolt for permanent sport climbing installations. It can be used vertically as a standalone bolt or as part of a two-bolt anchor setup. The rounded rod profile reduces wear on quickdraws and allows a rope to pass through when bailing off a route.

Quality assurance

All VERTA hardware goes through a rigorous testing and verification process before leaving production:

1. Third-party material composition testing to confirm Grade 2 / TA2 specification
   
2. 100% visual inspection for surface defects, dimensional conformance, and finish quality
   
3. Proof-load testing on all rings and quicklinks

4. Passivation to ASTM B600-11 to remove iron contamination and restore the titanium oxide layer
