FAQS on 1 2 x 5 1 2 wedge anchor

Q: What is the purpose of a 5/8" x 5" 316 stainless steel wedge anchor?

A: This anchor is designed for heavy-duty fastening in concrete or masonry. Its 316 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance, ideal for outdoor or marine environments. The 5-inch length ensures deep embedment for stability.

Q: How does a 5/8" x 3-1/2" stainless steel wedge anchor differ from a 4-inch version?

A: The 3.5-inch anchor suits applications requiring shorter embedment depth, while the 4-inch version provides extra grip for thicker materials. Both use 316 stainless steel for durability but cater to different load and depth requirements.

Q: Can a 1/2" x 5-1/2" wedge anchor be used in cracked concrete?

A: No, standard wedge anchors are not recommended for cracked concrete. Consider mechanical or epoxy alternatives instead. Always verify the anchor’s specifications for seismic or dynamic conditions.

Q: What torque should be applied to a 5/8" x 5" wedge anchor during installation?

A: Typically, a torque of 40-50 ft-lbs is recommended for a 5/8" diameter wedge anchor. Over-tightening may damage the material. Follow manufacturer guidelines for precise values based on substrate type.

Q: Are 316 stainless steel wedge anchors suitable for high-temperature environments?

A: Yes, 316 stainless steel resists oxidation up to 1600°F (870°C), making it suitable for high-heat areas. However, prolonged extreme heat may affect performance—consult engineering specifications for critical applications.

Q: What is the load capacity of a 5/8" x 4" wedge anchor in concrete?

A: A 5/8" x 4" anchor in 3000 PSI concrete can typically hold 10,000+ lbs in tension and 20,000+ lbs in shear. Exact values depend on embedment depth and installation quality—refer to technical charts for accuracy.

Q: How do I choose between a 5/8" x 3-1/2" and 5/8" x 5" wedge anchor?

A: Base your choice on material thickness and load needs: the 3.5-inch version works for lighter loads in thinner substrates, while the 5-inch anchor offers higher capacity for dense concrete or heavy structures.
