Blue Banger Hanger®Cast-In-Place, Internally-Threaded Inserts

Information on this page has been updated since the printing of the 2009-2010 Anchor Systems Catalog.
To view the specific changes made to this page in detail, see Catalog Changes and Corrections.

Blue Banger Hanger® internally-threaded inserts are cast into the underside of the concrete deck after being fastened to the top of wood forms or metal deck. Once the concrete has cured, the anchor provides an attachment point for threaded rod used to hang electrical, mechanical and plumbing utilities. The Blue Banger Hanger insert is the only pre-pour insert to offer the patented multi-thread design which allows one size insert to handle multiple diameters of threaded rod.
