Wedge-All® Wedge Anchor

The Wedge-All anchor has been discontinued. The replacement product is the Strong-Bolt® 2 wedge anchor (STB2), available in three finishes:

Strong-Bolt 2 Wedge Anchor — Stainless Steel
Strong-Bolt 2 Wedge Anchor — Mechanically Galvanized
Strong-Bolt 2 Wedge Anchor — Zinc Plated

The Wedge-All wedge-style expansion anchor is intended for use in solid concrete or grout-filled masonry. This anchor is best suited in installations where a building code approval for seismic and cracked/uncracked concrete is not required. Threaded studs are set by tightening the nut to the specified torque.

Key Features

  • One-piece, wrap-around clip ensures uniform holding capacity
  • Threaded end is chamfered for ease of starting nut
  • Available in a wide range of diameters and lengths

Material

  • Carbon or stainless steel (Types 303/304; Type 316)

Finish

  • Carbon steel anchors are available zinc plated or mechanically galvanized

Installation

  1. Drill a hole in base material using a carbide drill bit the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor to be installed. Drill the hole to the specified embedment depth, and blow it clean using compressed air. (Overhead installations need not be blown clean.) Alternatively, drill the hole deep enough to accommodate the embedment depth and the dust from drilling.
  2. Assemble the anchor with nut and washer so the top of the nut is flush with the top of the anchor. Place the anchor in the fixture, and drive it into the hole until the washer and nut are tight against the fixture.
  3. Tighten to the required installation torque.

Caution

  • Do not use an impact wrench to set or tighten anchors
  • Oversized holes in the base material will make it difficult to set the anchor and will reduce the anchor’s load capacity

  1. The published length is the overall length of the anchor. Allow one anchor diameter for the nut and washer thickness plus the fixture thickness when selecting a length.
  2. Anchors with the "SS" suffix in the model number are manufactured from Type-303 stainless steel; the remaining anchors (with the "4SS" suffix) are manufactured from Type 304 stainless steel. Types 303 and 304 stainless steel perform equally well in certain corrosive environments.
