Drop In Anchors

A drop-in anchor is a type of concrete anchor used for securing bolts, threaded rods, or other fasteners to concrete, masonry, or other solid materials. It is designed to provide a secure and reliable anchoring point for a wide range of applications, including construction, structural support, and machinery installation. Key characteristics of drop-in anchors include: Design: A drop-in anchor consists of a hollow, cylindrical anchor body with internal threads and a flange or lip at the top. It often has a pre-set depth indicator. Installation: To install a drop-in anchor, a hole is drilled into the concrete or masonry surface to the appropriate depth. The anchor is then inserted into the hole with the threaded end facing upward. When a bolt or threaded rod is tightened into the anchor, it expands the anchor body, creating a secure and reliable hold. Materials: Drop-in anchors are typically made of materials like steel, stainless steel, or zinc-plated steel for durability and corrosion resistance. Drop-in anchors are commonly used in construction and industrial applications where a strong and stable anchoring point is required. They provide a flush and clean appearance when not in use, making them suitable for applications where aesthetics are a consideration.
