Metallics TS5051SSD – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a wedge anchor work in block or brick, or only in concrete?
Wedge anchors are for solid, cured concrete. In hollow CMU, brick, or grout-filled block the expansion clip does not get consistent bearing, and in hollow cells it has nothing to grab at all. For those bases use a sleeve anchor, a screw anchor rated for masonry, or an adhesive anchor with a screen tube instead of the TS5051SSD.
2) Can I use a stainless wedge anchor outdoors or in a wet area?
Stainless is the reason to pick this one. The TS5051SSD is a stainless steel wedge anchor, so it suits exterior, damp, and washdown locations where a plain zinc-plated carbon steel anchor would rust and lose holding value. Typical uses are anchoring exterior equipment pads, rooftop curbs, railings, and strut or conduit supports into cured concrete.
3) Can a wedge anchor be removed or reused once it's set?
No. The clip on a 5/8 x 5 wedge anchor expands permanently against the hole wall, so once it is set the anchor stays. You can back the nut off and remove the fixture, but the stud remains. If you need a removable fastener for equipment that gets pulled and re-set, use a female-threaded drop-in anchor or a threaded insert rather than this one.
4) Do wedge anchors come with nuts and washers?
Wedge anchors in the TS5051SSD style ship as a complete assembly: the threaded stud with the expansion clip, plus the hex nut and washer needed to set it. No separate hardware purchase is required, though you will need a carbide hammer-drill bit and a torque wrench or impact to pull the anchor up against the clip.
5) Should I mix stainless anchors with galvanized strut and fittings?
Watch the metals. The TS5051SSD stud is stainless steel, and pairing stainless fasteners with plain galvanized or carbon steel channel in a wet exterior location sets up galvanic corrosion at the joint. For outdoor runs, carry the stainless through the strut, channel nuts, and clamps as well, or isolate the connection.
