Sleeve Anchors | McMaster-Carr

A zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments. Also known as sleeve anchors, these have a sleeve that expands as you tighten the nut for a secure hold in block and brick. They're often used to mount shelving and anchor bollards and guard rails. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Hex Head Removable-Bolt Anchors for Block and Brick

A hex head allows for a secure grip with a wrench. Also known as sleeve anchors, these have a sleeve that expands for a secure hold in block and brick. They're often used to hold steel and wood panels, doors, framing, and shelving. To install, tap the anchor into a hole and tighten the bolt to expand the sleeve. As you tighten, the nylon ring compresses to secure the fixture against the base material. Made from 18-8 stainless steel, they're chemical resistant and may be mildly magnetic. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Removable-Bolt Anchors for Concrete

Turn the bolt to expand the nut for a secure hold in concrete. These anchors are often used to anchor machinery. Bolts can be removed and reused in the same hole or used in a new hole along with a replacement expander nut (sold separately). To install, thread the nut onto the tapered bolt and insert into a hole. Made from zinc-plated steel, they resist corrosion in wet environments. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Stainless Steel Adhesive-Grip Female-Threaded Anchors for Concrete

These 316 stainless steel anchors have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water and may be mildly magnetic. Use them for permanent, high-strength anchoring where vibration is present. To install, fill a clean, drilled hole half full with epoxy adhesive, then insert the anchor until it's flush with the surface. Pull-out strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Steel Adhesive-Grip Female-Threaded Anchors for Concrete

A zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments. Use these anchors for permanent, high-strength anchoring where vibration is present. To install, fill a clean, drilled hole half full with epoxy adhesive, then insert the anchor until it's flush with the surface. Pull-out strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Adhesive Anchor Screen Tubes for Hollow Block and Brick

Step 1: Fill tube with adhesive (sold separately).

Step 2: Insert tube into drilled hole.

Step 3: Press tab, and insert rod into tube.

Used with adhesive in bricks and hollow blocks, such as cinder blocks, these mesh tubes create a stronger hold for rods and studs than other anchors. To install, first fill tubes with adhesive (sold separately) and press them into a drilled hole. Hold tubes in place by pressing the tab against your block, and insert a rod into them. The rod will push the adhesive out of the mesh screen, forming a plug that keeps the rod in place once the adhesive dries.
