AnkaScrew™ Fire Rated Suspension Anchors
|
|
Designed specifically for overhead threaded rod applications, AnkaScrew™ Rod provides a faster screw-in anchoring solution than traditional drop-in anchors. AnkaScrew™ Rod is suitable for suspension of sprinkler pipe systems, metal and plastic pipes, steel ductwork, steel trays, steel channel and steel trapeze and can be used for overhead, horizontal and vertical applications. AnkaScrew™ Stud is ideal for fast, direct to surface mounting of steel pipe clamps, metal brackets, steel trays and sprinkler clamps. Suitable for close-to-edge or close-to-anchor fixing.
Important Consult technical data for tested applications & fire ratings before commencing use. |

FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Fire Rated to and complies with AS1530.4
- The patented “shark’s tooth” thread reduces installation torque, while the wide thread angle and low thread pitch increases the mechanical interlock with the substrate and resists cyclic loading.
- Both AnkaScrew™ Rod and Stud are fast and easy to install as they simply screw into a small (6mm) pre-drilled hole, using an impact driver, reducing the risk of incorrect setting, as well as the dust, noise and fatigue associated with traditional overhead anchoring methods that require larger (10mm and 12mm ) holes and manual setting.
- Short body length minimises re-bar strikes, increasing carbide life.
- Both AnkaScrew™ Rod and Stud are easily removed leaving an empty hole with no protruding metal parts to grind off.
- Ideal for close-to-edge and close-to-anchor installation. Self-tapping, rotation setting method of installation is not subject to any expansion pressure, therefore does not risk bursting the substrate.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
|
1. Drill a 6mm diameter x 45mm (min) deep hole in the desired position. Remove the debris with a hand pump, compressed air, or vacuum. 2. Insert the AnkaScrew™ Rod or Stud and screw it into the hole with either a socket wrench or an impact wrench using slight pressure until the self-tapping action begins. 3. Tighten the AnkaScrew™ Rod or Stud until firm. If resistance is experienced when tightening, unscrew the anchor one turn and re-tighten. Ensure that you do not over tighten.
