Ultrawedge Anchor with Hot Dipped Galvanized Plating
The Ultrawedge Anchor with Hot Dipped Galvanized (HDG) Plating is a heavy-duty mechanical fastener designed for superior holding strength in concrete and masonry applications. These high-performance anchors are ideal for projects requiring dependable load-bearing capacity, especially in outdoor or corrosive environments where longevity and durability are critical.
Ultrawedge anchors are precision-engineered from high-strength carbon steel and feature a wedge-style expansion mechanism that provides excellent pull-out and shear resistance. The hot dipped galvanized plating adds a thick layer of corrosion-resistant zinc coating, typically measuring 2.0 to 3.9 mils. This ensures excellent protection against rust and oxidation, even in moist or chemically aggressive environments.
Available in a wide range of diameters (from 1/4" to 1") and lengths, Ultrawedge HDG anchors conform to ASTM F2329 and ASTM A153 for galvanized fasteners. They are often supplied with a matching HDG hex nut and washer to ensure full system integrity.
Ultrawedge Anchors with HDG plating are widely used in construction, infrastructure, and heavy-duty industrial applications, including:
Outdoor structural supports
Seismic anchoring systems
Light poles and sign supports
Bridge and highway guardrails
HVAC and mechanical equipment mounting
Precast concrete connections
The hot dipped galvanized coating makes them ideal for exterior or moist environments where standard zinc-plated or uncoated anchors would corrode. Unlike mechanically galvanized anchors, HDG plating provides superior coverage and thickness, especially over threads, ensuring long-lasting performance even when exposed to water or air pollutants.
For engineers and contractors looking for a reliable concrete anchoring solution, Ultrawedge Anchors with HDG plating offer the strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability demanded by today’s toughest construction challenges
