Drop-In Anchor

Simpson Strong-Tie introduces a redesigned Drop-In anchor (DIAB) that provides easier installation into base materials. Improved geometry in the preassembled expansion plug improves setting capability so the anchor installs with 40% fewer hammer strikes than previous versions. These displacement-controlled expansion anchors are easily set by driving the plug toward the bottom of the anchor using either the hand- or power-setting tools. DIAB anchors feature a positive-set marking indicator at the top of the anchor helping you see more clearly when proper installation has taken place. Use a Simpson Strong-Tie fixed-depth stop bit to take the guesswork out of drilling to the correct depth. The fluted design of the tip draws debris away from the hole during drilling, allowing for a cleaner installation.The HDIA hollow drop-in anchor is an internally threaded, flush-mount expansion anchor designed for attaching threaded rod to support a variety of conduit, cables and lighting. This anchor is ideal for use with hollow base materials such as CMU and hollow-core plank as well as in solid base materials such as brick and both normal-weight and lightweight concrete. The HDIA can easily be installed in both hollow and solid materials with a setting tool.
