Product and application brief

For a threaded connection into a base material, identify the complete anchor reference and compatible bolt or rod. Include whether the application has overhead, seismic or other special approval requirements.

Selection and compatibility

Use this page for an internally threaded anchor requirement. Externally threaded wedge or sleeve products require a different selection and order brief.

The correct setting tool and installation method are part of the anchoring system. Do not infer a safe load or suitability for overhead use from the internal thread size.

Prepare the order brief

Send a controlled drawing or complete product reference, plus quantities by size. Identify the inspection reports, packaging and shipping requirements needed for your order. If a requirement is not settled, mark it as needing confirmation rather than assuming a substitute.

Read the concrete anchors enquiry checklist before submitting your parts list.

Should the setting tool be included in the enquiry?

Yes. State the selected anchor and the required setting-tool / verification arrangement. Tool compatibility must be confirmed for that product.
