Technical Features
- Wedge-style expansion mechanism: The anchor expands mechanically against the concrete substrate upon torque application, creating a secure load-bearing connection without adhesive.
- Torque-set installation: Threaded studs are set by tightening the nut to a specified torque value, enabling consistent, verifiable installation on every anchor.
- Galvanized finish: Provides corrosion resistance suitable for protected exterior and general construction environments.
- 1/2 in. x 8-1/2 in. dimensions: Large diameter and extended length support deep embedment for increased holding strength in thick concrete sections.
- 25-piece boxed quantity: Packaged for job-site efficiency, reducing handling time on projects with multiple anchor points.
Applications
- Anchoring structural elements, equipment, and fixtures into solid concrete slabs and walls.
- Fastening into grout-filled masonry where a mechanical expansion anchor is specified.
- General construction installations where seismic design category or cracked-concrete code approval is not a project requirement.
- Suitable for use in applications where consistent torque-controlled installation is required for quality assurance.
