Ultrawedge Steel Wedge Anchors with Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
Concrete Wedge Anchors
Heavy-Duty Mechanical Anchors for Solid Concrete
Concrete wedge anchors are heavy-duty mechanical fasteners engineered to anchor structural and non-structural components into solid concrete. Designed for strength, reliability, and permanence, these anchors achieve superior holding power through a mechanical expansion action that grips the concrete tightly as the anchor is set. This makes wedge anchors an ideal choice for critical load-bearing applications where safety and long-term performance are essential.
How Concrete Wedge Anchors Work
Mechanical Expansion for Maximum Holding Strength
Wedge anchors are installed by drilling a hole through the fixture and into solid concrete. As the nut is tightened, the expansion clip at the base of the anchor wedges firmly against the concrete wall. This creates high tension and shear resistance, delivering a vibration-resistant, permanent anchoring solution trusted by construction professionals.
Material and Finish Options
Engineered for Durability and Corrosion Resistance
Concrete wedge anchors are available in multiple materials to match environmental and performance requirements:
-
Carbon Steel – A cost-effective option for general indoor and dry applications
-
304 & 316 Stainless Steel – Excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor, marine, and chemical-exposed environments
Available finishes include Clear Zinc Cr3 for indoor use, Hot-Dipped Galvanized coatings for exterior exposure, and Mechanically Galvanized options offering uniform protection ideal for structural and grounding applications.
Sizes, Threads, and Head Styles
Versatile Options for Every Installation
Wedge anchors are offered in diameters from 1/4" to 1-1/4" and lengths from 1-3/4" to 12", featuring UNC coarse threads for fast, secure installation. Common head styles include hex head, flat head, and rod-hanging configurations to suit a wide range of mounting needs.
Common Applications
Trusted for Structural and Industrial Use
Concrete wedge anchors are widely used to secure steel columns, base plates, machinery, racking systems, handrails, guardrails, HVAC units, electrical panels, conduit, and pipe supports. Stainless steel anchors excel in corrosive environments, while galvanized options provide long-term protection in semi-exposed conditions.
Proven Performance for Professional Installations
Permanent, Code-Compliant Anchoring
With exceptional holding strength and long-term reliability, concrete wedge anchors deliver dependable, code-compliant fastening for demanding concrete applications.
