Description:
Each high-quality steel part of the Concrete Sleeve Anchor is zinc plated. A tubular expander sleeve is assembled over a threaded stud with an outwardly flared cone-shaped end. The anchor, which works on a true expansion principal, comes ready for use with nut and washer. The cone-shaped stud end is pulled into the expander sleeve as the nut is tightened. This wedges the expander sleeve outward and locks the anchor into the base material. The Concrete Sleeve Anchor is also available in stainless steel.
