Product Details and Installation

This product is a classic drop-in anchor, which is a female-threaded, deformation-controlled expansion anchor. Its simple and robust design allows for the creation of a permanent threaded socket within a concrete structure.

• Mechanism: The anchor is comprised of a cylindrical, internally threaded expansion sleeve and a pre-inserted solid expander plug located at its base.
• Installation Process:
  1. Drill a hole into the solid concrete ceiling, ensuring it matches the specified diameter and depth for the anchor size.
  2. Thoroughly clean the hole of all dust and debris.
  3. Insert (or “drop in”) the anchor into the hole until its top is flush with the concrete surface.
  4. Using a dedicated setting tool, strike the tool firmly with a hammer. This action drives the internal plug downwards, causing the base of the anchor to expand and press firmly against the walls of the hole.
• Final Use: Once properly set, the anchor provides a secure, permanent, and flush-mounted threaded point, ready to accept a standard metric bolt or threaded rod to hang fixtures and equipment.
