Installation Instructions

  1. Drill the hole perpendicular to the work surface with a solid carbide bit that meets ANSI B212.5 specifications. The drill bit diameter will be the same as the anchor diameter that you are installing. To assure full holding power, do not ream the hole or allow the drill to wobble.
  2. Drill the hole one diameter deeper than the intended embedment of the anchor, but not closer than two diameters to the bottom (opposite) surface of the concrete.
  3. Clean the hole using compressed air and a nylon brush. A clean hole is necessary for proper performance.
  4. Insert anchor into hole until washer rests solidly against fixture.
  5. Tighten 1-1/2 to 3 turns past hand tight position but to a maximum torque as listed in the table below.

NOTE: Always wear safety glasses. Follow drill manufacturer's instructions. Use only solid carbide-tipped drill bits meeting ANSI B212.15 diameter standards.
