Metallics JTS1214 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole do I drill for a Metallics JTS1214 wedge anchor?
Drill a 1/4 inch hole. The JTS1214 is a 1/4 x 2-1/4 inch wedge anchor, and wedge anchors use a carbide bit matching the anchor's nominal diameter, so the 1/4 inch anchor goes into a 1/4 inch hole drilled deeper than the embedment you need so debris has somewhere to go.
2) Can I use the JTS1214 anchor in concrete block or brick, or is it concrete only?
Wedge anchors like the 1/4 x 2-1/4 JTS1214 are designed for solid, poured concrete. They work by a expansion clip wedging against the wall of the hole, which needs solid base material. Hollow block, brick with voids, and mortar joints don't give that, so use a sleeve anchor or a toggle in those.
3) Is the JTS1214 anchor zinc plated or stainless?
Steel with zinc plating, not stainless. That suits dry interior concrete work, electrical strut, conduit straps, and equipment mounting indoors. For exterior, wet, or corrosive locations specify a stainless wedge anchor instead.
4) Can wedge anchors be removed and reused once they are set?
No. A wedge anchor is a one-time, permanent fastener; once the nut is torqued the clip expands against the concrete and the body won't come back out. You can back the nut off and remove the fixture, but the anchor stays. Cut or drive it flush and relocate if you need to move the mount.
5) Do I need anything else besides the anchor to install it?
The JTS1214 comes complete with its nut and washer as a wedge anchor assembly, so no separate hardware is needed. You will need a hammer drill with a 1/4 inch carbide bit, a blow-out bulb or brush to clear the hole, a hammer to drive the anchor, and a wrench to torque the nut.
6) How many anchors come in a jar of Metallics JTS1214?
100 pieces per jar, packed as a jar rather than a loose box, which keeps them from scattering in a van or on a cart. One jar covers a sizeable run of conduit straps or strut hangers before you need to reorder.
7) What part number do I order for the 1/4 inch Metallics wedge anchor?
Order Metallics JTS1214. That is the single model covering the 1/4 x 2-1/4 inch zinc plated wedge anchor supplied 100 to a jar.
