The Titen HD anchor is a patented, high-strength screw anchor for concrete and masonry. It is designed for optimum performance in both cracked and uncracked concrete; a requirement that the 2006 IBC places on post-installed anchors. The high strength, easy to install Titen HD anchor has been tested and shown to provide outstanding performance in cracked and uncracked concrete under both static and seismic loading conditions. The self undercutting, non-expansion characteristics of the Titen HD anchor make it ideal for structural applications, even at reduced edge distances and spacings. Recommended for permanent dry, interior non-corrosive environments or temporary outdoor applications.
Features: - Zinc plated finish
- Tested per AC193 to ensure outstanding performance in both cracked and uncracked concrete
- Higher load capacity and vibration resistance: Threads along the length of the anchor undercut the concrete and efficiently transfer the load to the base material.
- Vibration and shock resistance: The mechanical interlock of the threads and the ratchet teeth on the underside of the head help prevent the anchor from loosening in vibratory conditions. The Titen HD anchor has been tested to 12.6 million vibratory cycles with no performance reductions.
- Specialized heat treating process: Creates superior surface hardness at the tip to facilitate cutting, while at the same time not compromising ductility within the anchor body.
- Less spacing and edge distance required: The anchor does not exert expansion forces on the base material.
- Easy post-installation inspection: The head is stamped with the Simpson Strong-Tie ""≠"" sign and the anchor length in inches.
- No special drill bit needed: Designed to install using standard sized ANSI tolerance drill bits
- Installs with 50% less torque: Testing shows that when compared to competitors, the Titen HD requires 50% less torque to be installed in concrete.
- Hex-washer head: Requires no separate washer and provides a clean installed appearance.*
- Removable: Ideal for temporary anchoring (e.g. formwork, bracing) or applications where fixtures may need to be moved. Re-use of the anchor to achieve listed load values is not recommended.
