Installation Instructions
Step 1: Drill a hole in the base material with a hammer drill that is the correct diameter required for the diameter of the screw that is being installed. Make sure that the depth of the hole will be a minimum of 1/2” deeper than the concrete screw will penetrate.
Step 2: Insert the concrete screw through a hole in the fixture and into the hole in the base material. Using a wrench or drill, rotate the screw until the head of the concrete screw is tight against the surface of the fixture. Make sure that the screw is not over-torqued as this may strip the threads in the base material and cause it to spin in the hole.

Installation Instructions
Step 1: Drill a hole in the base material with a hammer drill and a correctly sized carbide drill bit for the diameter Drop-in anchor you are using.
Step 2: Blow out debris in the hole with compressed air.
Step 3: Clean out the hole of all remaining debris.
Step 4: Drop the anchor into the hole, slotted end first.
Step 5: Insert the setting tool into the anchor and strike with a hammer until the lip of the setting tool meets the top of the anchor. Using the setting tool, the plug is driven to exactly the right depth, causing the anchor to expand.
Step 6: Set the fixture over the anchor and insert the properly sized threaded rod or machine threaded bolt through the fixture and into it. Tighten the rod/bolt.

Hammer Drive Anchors


Hammer Drive anchors are a medium to light duty fastener designed for securing material and equipment to concrete, stone, block and brick.

Wedge Anchors - Carbon Steel


Wedge anchors are designed for securing material and equipment to concrete masonry surfaces. These fasteners are used to install various structures to concrete including: equipment, materials, generators, motors, pumps, pipes, strut, steel shapes, plastics or wood members.

Wedge Anchor Sizes & Specifications
Note: Wedge anchors come in different lengths to accommodate different thickness of materials being fastened and embedment depths. The minimum length wedge anchor to be used for any application is determined by adding the thickness of the material being fastened, plus the minimum embedment for the diameter of wedge anchor being installed, plus space for the nut and washer.

Load values shown are average values and are offered only as a guide and are not guaranteed. A safety factor of 4:1 or 25% is generally accepted as a safe working load. Embedments deeper than the minimum will generally provide better pullout values as the depth is increased; the shear values remain the same independent of embedment depth. Reference should be made to applicable codes for the specific working ratio.
Installation Instructions
Step 1: Using a hammer drill and a properly sized carbide tipped drill bit, drill a hole in the base material Drill the depth of the hole a minimum of 1/2” deeper than concrete wedge anchor will penetrate, or 1/2” deeper than the minimum depth of embedment.
Step 2: Clean the hole of all debris and dust.
Step 3: Thread the nut onto the threaded end of the concrete wedge anchor so that the top of the nut is flush with the top of the concrete wedge anchor. This will protect the threads from damage during installation. Insert concrete wedge anchor, clipped end first, into the predrilled hole in the concrete. If the concrete wedge anchor is being installed through a hole in a fixture, make sure that the hole diameter is larger than the diameter of the concrete wedge anchor being used. With a hammer, strike the nutted end of the concrete wedge anchor until a minimum of 6 threads is below the surface of the concrete or below the surface of the item being attached.
Step 4: Using your fingers, tighten the nut. Then take a wrench and turn the nut clockwise to tighten the nut.
