Hammer Drive Anchors

A hammer drive anchor, also known as a hammer-set anchor, is a type of expansion anchor used for fastening objects to concrete, brick, or masonry surfaces. It is designed for quick and easy installation with the use of a hammer. Key characteristics of hammer drive anchors include: Design: A hammer drive anchor typically consists of a cylindrical metal body, a nail or pin, and a pre-installed washer. The metal body is often made of materials like zinc or steel. Installation: To install a hammer drive anchor, a hole is drilled into the masonry surface, and the anchor is inserted. A hammer is then used to strike the nail or pin, which pushes against the washer and expands the anchor, securing it tightly in place. Versatility: These anchors are versatile and can be used for various light to medium-duty applications, such as attaching electrical boxes, conduits, signs, and small fixtures to masonry surfaces. Hammer drive anchors offer a convenient and efficient way to create secure fastenings in masonry materials without the need for complex tools or equipment. They are commonly used in construction, electrical, and plumbing installations where a straightforward and reliable anchoring solution is required.
