Metallics J7524SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole do I drill for the Metallics J7524SS sleeve anchor?
The J7524SS is a 3/4 x 2-1/2 inch sleeve anchor, so the hole is drilled with a 3/4 inch carbide bit. Sleeve anchors use a nominal diameter that matches the drill size, and the hole should go deeper than the 2-1/2 inch anchor length so drill dust has somewhere to go.
2) Are these Metallics anchors stainless steel, and can I use them outdoors?
Yes, the J7524SS hex nut sleeve anchor is stainless steel, which is why it gets specified for exterior walls, wet or washdown areas, and coastal work where a plain zinc anchor would rust and stain the concrete.
3) Should I use a hex nut sleeve anchor or a wedge anchor in concrete?
A sleeve anchor like the J7524SS expands along the length of its sleeve, so it spreads load and works in concrete as well as block and brick. A wedge anchor expands only at the tip and is for solid concrete only. If you are fastening into hollow or soft masonry, the sleeve anchor is the right choice; for maximum pullout in poured concrete, a wedge anchor is the usual pick.
4) How much of the J7524SS anchor is left for the fixture I am mounting?
Total anchor length is 2-1/2 inches, and the expansion sleeve has to be fully inside the base material for the anchor to hold. That means the thickness of whatever you are fastening plus the nut and washer has to come out of that 2-1/2 inches, so plan on a thin fixture or strut. For a thicker standoff, step up to a longer 3/4 inch sleeve anchor.
5) How many anchors come in the Metallics J7524SS package?
Ten anchors per jar. Each one is a 3/4 x 2-1/2 sleeve anchor with the hex nut and washer assembly already on the stud, so there is nothing else to order to set them.
6) What is the Metallics part number for the 3/4 inch stainless sleeve anchor?
J7524SS is the Metallics number for the 3/4 x 2-1/2 stainless hex nut sleeve anchor, sold in a jar of 10. The SS suffix is the stainless designation.
