Fastenic Steel Concrete Inserts are designed for casting into concrete at determined points to provide heavy power load capacity.

  • Eliminate the drilling holes in concrete when fixing points are required in pre-cast concrete and to avoid drilled holes hitting steel reinforcing bars in heavily reinforced structures.
  • Hexagon larger tapered base (M24 and 1” are round tapered bases) decreases a shear  load by transferring to the concrete and increases a high tensile load capacity.
  • Connection to reinforcing, passing the steel reinforcing rod through the cross drilled hole the base of the insert ( M10 or ?” and above ) to connect into the reinforcing system to spread of the applied load.
  • Due to they are no expansion stresses, they make good close anchor spacing and close edge distance when tied to reinforcement.
  • For maximum load value of insert, hex bolt thread engagement must be at least  80% of the thread depth.
  • Made from steel and finished with rust resistant zinc plate.
  • Stainless steel concrete insert available.

Installation

1. Drill hole for bolt in steel form or wood form Concrete. Inert to reinforcing system If desired.
2. Pass bolt with washer through form work hole into insert and tighten.
3. Pour concrete. After concrete curing remove bolt washer and formwork, leaving the insert firmly embedded in the concrete.   4. Place fixture. Insert hex bolt through fixture into the insert and tighten bolt to recommended torque.
