Wedge Anchors

A wedge anchor is a type of mechanical expansion anchor used to secure heavy objects to concrete or masonry surfaces. It is commonly used in construction and industrial applications to attach equipment, machinery, structural elements, and other fixtures to concrete floors, walls, or ceilings. Key characteristics of wedge anchors include: Design: A wedge anchor typically consists of a threaded rod, a threaded expansion sleeve, and a nut and washer. The expansion sleeve is usually made of steel and has a tapered shape. Installation: To install a wedge anchor, a hole is drilled into the concrete or masonry surface, and the anchor is inserted. As the nut is tightened, it pulls the threaded rod up through the tapered expansion sleeve, causing the sleeve to expand and wedge securely against the walls of the hole. Materials: Wedge anchors are typically made of materials like carbon steel or stainless steel to resist corrosion and provide strong, durable fastening. Wedge anchors are known for their reliability and high load-bearing capacity, making them suitable for applications where structural stability and safety are paramount, such as in the installation of heavy machinery, racks, or structural components in construction and industrial settings.
