Abstract

See full text

A torque nut includes a threaded passageway and a groove. The groove has its opening facing the passageway. A breakaway insert having a major body portion is formed in the passageway, and a tab connected to the major body portion is formed in the groove, for example, by injection molding. The tab connected to the major body portion prevents rotation of the insert in the passageway. In one use, a resin component, a catalyst component and a first end of a rock-bolt are positioned in a bore hole. The torque nut is threaded onto the opposite end of the rock-bolt. Rotation of the torque nut rotates the rock-bolt, mixing the components. After the components set, increased torque is applied to the torque nut to fracture the insert and move the nut up the threaded end of the rock-bolt against roof stabilizing components.
