Wedge Expansion Anchors

Wedge anchors are mechanical expansion fasteners engineered for securing fixtures into solid concrete. Once inserted and torqued, the anchor expands at the base, locking into place for a dependable, long-term hold. They are commonly used in structural connections, heavy equipment installations, and industrial construction.

Engineered for Anchoring Into Solid Concrete


  • Designed for Structural and Load-Bearing Applications
  • Wedge anchors are used to secure heavy materials like steel columns, machinery, base plates, or racking systems directly into concrete surfaces.


  • Expansion Locking Mechanism Ensures Long-Term Stability
  • The anchor expands near its embedded end when torqued, delivering a tight grip that resists pullout and vibration over time.


  • Hex Head or Threaded Bolt Tops for Versatile Compatibility
  • Options include hex bolts and threaded variants for use with nuts or washers, adapting to different installation and assembly requirements.


  • Built for Static and Dynamic Load Conditions
  • They are suitable for environments with static loads or vibration, such as warehouses, mechanical rooms, and structural framing.


  • Suitable for Indoor and Outdoor Use With Corrosion-Resistant Options
  • Wedge anchors are available in materials like stainless steel or zinc-plated steel to meet corrosion resistance standards in harsh or exposed conditions.



Frequently Asked Questions About Wedge Expansion Anchors


How do wedge anchors hold in place?

When tightened, the anchor expands at the base, locking tightly against the sides of the drilled hole.


Can wedge anchors be used for structural steel connections?

Yes, they are frequently used in structural applications that demand high holding power.


Are stainless steel wedge anchors corrosion-resistant?

Yes, stainless steel options provide excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor or wet conditions.


What tools are needed to install wedge anchors?

A hammer, correctly sized drill bit, and wrench or impact driver are typically used during installation.


Are wedge anchors removable?

While the nut and washer can be removed, the embedded anchor is not designed to be extracted once installed.
