Recent bad batches of track hung carrier bolts have been supplied by manufacturers of movable walls.
The dangerous outcome of this can be seen on the left hand side of this page.

If any wear is picked up on the inspection, then a quotation will follow to replace the bolts with a higher tensile steel.
