ZongXiang, a leading manufacturer and supplier of underground support systems, has successfully exported a new batch of PM24 Swellex rock bolts to Bolivia, marking another step forward in the company’s international expansion. The shipment underscores ZongXiang’s commitment to delivering high-quality, reliable rock reinforcement products to mining and tunneling projects around the world.

The PM24 Swellex rock bolt is a high-performance, inflatable friction bolt widely used in underground mining, tunneling, and civil engineering applications. Manufactured from high-grade steel and designed for quick installation, the PM24 offers superior holding power in challenging geological conditions. Once inserted into a pre-drilled borehole, the bolt is expanded using high-pressure water, allowing it to conform perfectly to the hole’s irregularities. This process ensures immediate full-length support, improving ground stability and enhancing worker safety.

Bolivia, known for its extensive mineral resources—particularly silver, tin, zinc, and lithium—has been steadily investing in mining infrastructure. Underground projects in the country’s mountainous regions face complex rock conditions, making reliable ground support systems essential. ZongXiang’s PM24 Swellex bolts have proven ideal for such environments, offering rapid installation and long-term performance even in fractured or highly stressed rock masses.

The latest export shipment to Bolivia involved close collaboration between ZongXiang’s engineering team and local mining contractors. Before production began, ZongXiang worked with Bolivian partners to review geological data and select bolt specifications best suited to local conditions. The order included bolts of varying lengths, along with accessories such as installation adaptors, water pumps, and testing equipment to ensure smooth implementation at the worksite.

Quality assurance was a top priority during manufacturing. Each PM24 bolt underwent rigorous testing for tensile strength, expansion capacity, and corrosion resistance in ZongXiang’s state-of-the-art facility. The company also provided detailed installation guidelines and offered remote training sessions for Bolivian crews, ensuring that the bolts could be deployed efficiently and safely upon arrival.

The logistics of shipping heavy, precision-engineered steel components from Asia to South America required meticulous planning. ZongXiang coordinated with international freight carriers to optimize packaging, protect against transit damage, and comply with customs requirements. Despite global shipping challenges, the batch arrived on schedule, ready to be integrated into active underground projects.

For ZongXiang, this export milestone reflects its growing role as a trusted partner for mining companies worldwide. By supplying PM24 Swellex rock bolts to Bolivia, the company is not only contributing to safer and more productive mining operations but also deepening trade ties between China and Latin America.

Looking ahead, ZongXiang plans to continue expanding its product portfolio and technical support services in the South American market. With ongoing investments in research, manufacturing efficiency, and global logistics, the company aims to meet the evolving demands of underground construction projects in diverse geological settings.

In an industry where ground control can mean the difference between operational success and costly downtime, ZongXiang’s PM24 Swellex bolts stand as a reliable, field-proven solution—now supporting Bolivia’s vital mining sector.
