Because we all want 1/4 hangars

Calm down, I use them with 10mm sleeves. The inside rod is 8mm, and it work fine for the static loads I am putting on them 

Hownot2's Raumer hangers are currently the cheapest I can find but they're often out of stock in 10mm. Chossworks has some at $3 a pop with bulk: chossworks.com/collections/…

This is the cheapest I've found so far: https://www.elevatedclimbing.com/collections/bolting/products/fixe-ss-hanger?variant=31196909109346

Edit: How do you guys like Chosswork's Hangers?

Nice find. I love em, maybe mostly because I think his branding is hilarious. Index is choss, after all.

Chossworks hangers have worked well for me as well. Love seeing them out climbing because of the branding :D 

If you're in europe, this would be a stellar deal: rope-master.com/en/climbing…

ChossWorks is offering free shipping on orders over $200 on Monday December 1! ChossWorks

I have placed a ton of the Chossworks hangers. I believe I got them from a guy in Alaska?? before they had their online store. They are a pretty basic hanger. Identical if not sourced from the Climbtech hangers. I believe they are 316 instead of 304. Wedge bolts have a bit but mild impact on their then clip point.

The poster above, C Williams, is the man behind Chossworks. He’s solid to work with and has great prices! When he was in the Tetons, he checked out the new crag where we had used some of his hardware.

I love seeing the Chossworks branding out there. Gonna have to snag myself a tshirt on next order. #TeamChossworks 

Anyone have any leads on decent 1/2" sleeve bolts? Plated is fine, they're for the desert, so I prioritize size and good torque specs over metal for soft rock in dry environments.

Don’t place plated steel bolts. They might last 70 years in the desert, but stainless will last much longer.

But to answer the question, the cheapest ones you can reliably buy are the CTW sleeves from HowNot2. I use the 10mm from them as my mainstay, they work well. YMMV obviously.

eBay has the cheapest prices by far. 

ebay links not allowed but the wolfbox mf100 blower is on sale with coupon for $49 shipped. Open box returns but sold by wolfbox. If youve never used one of these they are an incredible addition to any developers kit.

Ive been using a Ryobi small leaf blower and its about dead after many years- does this wofbox blower push enough air to blow off/clean dirty routes and not just blow away drill dust?

Yes indeed! its wildly powerful. Honestly first time using one I thought it was magic it pushed so much freaking air.
They have a new model with swappable batteries for like 100 bucks. It is slightly more powerful but not enough to make it worthy of the extra dollars for me, and its larger. I have not needed more than a single charge on the one linked, but the abaility to change battaries or even get new ones as the old one ages out is for sure a nice feature.
The low (out of 3*) setting is enough for most of the tasks I need it to perform and it last well over an hour straight (100mins) at that setting according to their numbers.

Anybody want to buy some Power-Bolts?

I've got 91 of the 304 SS 3/8" x 2 1/4" purchased back in 2010 or thereabouts, so these ones were made in Taiwan.  $250 shipped
