Description
Concrete wedge anchors are used to anchor and secure materials and equipment to solid concrete masonry surfaces. Concrete wedge anchor bolts have a mechanism near the bottom that expands once installed and "wedges" itself into the concrete.
Wedge anchors are installed into drilled holes, exclusively in concrete. The non-threaded end is embedded into the hole and then struck to activate the expansion mechanism, which is fully utilized as the nut is tightened over the washer on the outside of the surface, on the material being fastened. The majority of the wedge anchor remains embedded in the solid masonry material being fastened to.
*Note: Wedge anchors are considered a permanent installation. The material or equipment may be removed, but the fastener cannot be removed from the concrete. The only way to remove a wedge anchor is to cut through it flush to the ground.
