Metallics TS587SSD – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole do I drill for the Metallics TS587SSD 5/8 inch wedge anchor?
A 5/8 inch diameter hole. Wedge anchors are drilled with a carbide bit matching the anchor's nominal diameter, so the TS587SSD's 5/8 inch body goes into a 5/8 inch hole drilled deeper than the embedment you need, with the dust blown or vacuumed out before the anchor is driven.
2) Is the Metallics TS587SSD stainless steel, and can I use it outdoors or in a wet area?
It is 18-8 stainless steel, which is the austenitic 300 series grade used for general corrosion resistance. That makes it suitable for exterior concrete, wet mechanical rooms, and washdown areas where a plain zinc-plated carbon steel wedge anchor would rust. For chloride-heavy coastal or pool environments, 316 stainless is the step up.
3) Can I use the Metallics TS587SSD wedge anchor in block or brick?
No. Wedge anchors like this one are for solid, poured concrete only. The expansion clip needs continuous dense material to bite into, and hollow CMU or brick will blow out or spin. For block, use a sleeve anchor or a screen tube with adhesive instead.
4) How many anchors come in a box of Metallics TS587SSD?
25 pieces per box, all 5/8 x 7 inch 18-8 stainless wedge anchors. Worth knowing if you are laying out a base plate or strut run and need to count fasteners per hole against the box quantity rather than buying singles.
5) Why would I need a 7 inch long wedge anchor instead of a shorter one?
The 7 inch length on the TS587SSD covers the thickness of whatever you are fastening plus the embedment into the concrete. Thick base plates, stacked shims, grout beds, housekeeping pads, or anchoring through a sleeper or sill into the slab all eat up length before the anchor ever reaches concrete. If your fixture is thin, a shorter 5/8 anchor is the better choice because excess length just means a deeper hole.
6) Is the Metallics TS587SSD made in the USA?
Yes, the TS587SSD 5/8 x 7 stainless wedge anchor is a USA-made part, which matters on public and institutional work carrying domestic sourcing requirements.
7) What thread and nut does the TS587SSD wedge anchor take?
It is a 5/8 inch wedge anchor supplied with its nut and washer, which is standard for the style, so nothing separate is needed to make up the connection. Your fixture holes need to clear 5/8 inch, and you tighten the nut to set the expansion clip against the hole wall.
8) Can a wedge anchor like this be removed and reused?
No. Once the nut is torqued and the clip expands, a wedge anchor is permanently set. You can back the nut off and remove the fixture, but the anchor body stays in the concrete. If you need a removable fastener, a threaded insert or drop-in anchor is the right type instead.
