304 SS Wedge Anchor
304 SS Wedge Anchor
Manufacturers:
Wedge Anchors are a non-bottom bearing, wedge-style expansion anchor for use in solid concrete or grout-filled concrete masonry. A one-piece clip ensures uniform holding capacity that increases as tension is applied. Installation is simple, utilizing standard hole sizes equal to the anchor bolt diameter. Wedge Anchors are among the most common and economical anchoring option for existing concrete. Available in type 303/304 or 316 stainless steel. 303/304 stainless steel fasteners are commonly used in applications that require general atmospheric corrosion resistance, such as chemical and food processing equipment. Stainless steel has a higher corrosion resistance than carbon steel.

Installation
1. Drill a hole in base material using a carbide drill bit the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor to be installed. Drill the hole to the specified embedment depth.
2. Blow hole clean using compressed air. (Overhead installations need not be blown clean.) Alternatively, drill the hole deep enough to accommodate the embedment depth and the dust from drilling.
3. Assemble the anchor with nut and washer so the top of the nut is flush with the top of the anchor. Place the anchor in the fixture, and drive it into the hole until the washer and nut are tight against the fixture.
4. Tighten to the required installation torque.
CAUTION:
•Do not use an impact wrench to set or tighten anchors
•Oversized holes in the base material will make it difficult to set the anchor and will reduce the anchor's load capacity

- All dimensions are in inches.
- The published length is the overall length of the anchor. Allow one anchor diameter for the nut and washer thickness plus the fixture thickness when selecting the minimum length.
- Data valid for installation in normal-weight concrete.
