Drop in Anchors

Drop in anchor is a type of fastener, which contains a hollow sleeve that expandable at one slotted end. There is an internal expander plug inserted in the other end of the sleeve. The drop in anchor is used to fix a construction elements (utility or decorative element) to a concrete surface or brick walls. When using a drop in anchor, there must have a pre-drilled hole at the concrete wall surface (target object). Then insert a drop in anchor into the pre-drilled hole (the slotted expandable end goes first), using a expansion tool to press the expandable plug inside, the slotted skirt end then expansion and firmly grip the sides of the hole. Then using a bolt or other threaded fastener to screw into the outward end of the drop in anchor (interal threaded side) to fix the constructional or decorative parts.
