Metallics LCS1240 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What head style does the Metallics LCS1240 anchor have, and what tool do I set it with?
It's a hex head anchor, so it sets and tightens with a socket or wrench rather than a screwdriver or driver bit. That matters when you are anchoring strut, conduit clamps, or equipment feet where you want to torque the nut down against the fixture.
2) Is the LCS1240 anchor OK for damp or outdoor concrete work?
The LCS1240 is zinc-plated steel, which is a light corrosion coating suited to dry interior concrete and occasional damp exposure. For continuously wet, exterior, or coastal work, or anywhere chlorides are present, specify a stainless anchor instead rather than zinc-plated carbon steel.
3) What hole size do I drill for a 1/2 inch anchor like the Metallics LCS1240?
Anchors of this type are drilled with a carbide bit matching the anchor's nominal diameter, so a 1/2 inch bit for the 1/2 inch LCS1240, drilled deeper than the anchor's set depth so debris has somewhere to go. Blow or vacuum the hole clean before setting.
4) What is this Metallics 1/2 inch anchor typically used for on an electrical job?
It's a concrete fastener from the electrical fastener line, used for the heavier attachments on a job: mounting strut channel, panel and enclosure backing, transformer and equipment feet, and hanger rod bases into poured concrete. The 1/2 inch diameter is the size normally called out where a 1/4 or 3/8 anchor won't carry the load.
5) How is the LCS1240 packaged if I'm buying for stock rather than a single job?
Packaging is a jar of 25 anchors, which is the usual shop or van stocking quantity for a 1/2 inch anchor. If you need several hundred for a single pour, order in multiples of 25.
