Anchors

About Anchors

Anchors are used to attach an object to a support structure. Common anchor types include concrete anchors, floor anchors, expansion anchors, wall anchors, and specialty anchors. A concrete anchor is a screw-bolt system designed to attach a nonstructural object to a section of concrete. A floor anchor is designed to secure floor boards. A wall anchor is used in foundation repairs, sump pump installation, and basement waterproofing. An expansion anchor is easy to install and can be used in high shear-load applications. There are two types of expansion anchors: double expansion and single expansion. A double expansion anchor consists of a nut, a cone, and a tubular shield that is pre-assembled as a single unit. Double expansion anchors have expansion action at both ends of the shield and distribute the anchored load throughout the length of the shield. A single expansion anchor is used with machine screws or machine bolts in concrete, brick, or stone. A specialty anchor is designed to meet specific anchoring requirements. Other types of anchors are also available.
