WERCS AnkaScrew™ Screw-In Anchors
|
The WERCS AnkaScrew™ Screw-In Anchor is a totally removable, medium duty, rotation setting, thread forming anchor, ideal for either temporary or permanent anchoring into substrates such as concrete, brick, hollow brick or block. The WERCS AnkaScrew™ is particularly well suited to close-to-edge or close-to-anchor fixing as it does not expand and burst the surrounding substrate. |

FEATURES & BENEFITS
-
High thread engagement increases clamp force and holding capacity over a wide range of loading.
-
The WERCS AnkaScrew™ is ideal for close-to-edge and close-to-anchor installation as its self-tapping, rotation setting method of installation is subject to low expansion pressure, therefore does not burst the substrate.
-
For concrete, brick & block (solid & hollow).
-
The WERCS AnkaScrew™ thread design provides clearance for rapid removal of material and reduces jamming.
-
The WERCS AnkaScrew™ is 100% removable.
-
The WERCS AnkaScrew™ is both fast and easy to install as it simply screws into a pre-drilled hole.
-
The WERCS AnkaScrew™ is even faster and easier to remove. It simply screws out leaving an empty hole with no protruding metal parts to grind off.
-
Available in galvanised for exterior applications.
-
Suitable for installation with impact wrenches.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
-
Drill or core a hole to the recommended diameter and depth using the fixture as a template. Clean the hole thoroughly with a hole cleaning brush. Remove the debris with a hand pump, compressed air, or vacuum.
-
Insert the WERCS AnkaScrew™ through the fixture and screw it into the hole with either a socket wrench or an impact wrench (with an impact socket) using slight pressure until the self-tapping action begins.
-
Tighten the WERCS AnkaScrew™ until the fixture is held firm. If resistance is experienced when tightening, unscrew the anchor one turn and re-tighten. Ensure that you do not over tighten.
