Metallics J7524 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Metallics J7524 sleeve anchor, and what hole does it need?
The Metallics J7524 is a 3/4 x 2-1/2 inch hex nut sleeve anchor. Sleeve anchors are installed in a hole drilled to the same nominal diameter as the anchor, so a 3/4 inch carbide bit matched to the anchor body, drilled deeper than the 2-1/2 inch anchor length to clear dust. The 2-1/2 inch length sets the total of fixture thickness plus embedment, so measure your fixture before you commit to this length.
2) Can I use the J7524 anchor in hollow block or brick, or is it concrete only?
Hex nut sleeve anchors like the 3/4 x 2-1/2 J7524 are the style of mechanical anchor used in solid concrete, brick and hollow block, because the expanding sleeve spreads the load over a longer bearing area than a wedge anchor. For base material limits and load values in your specific substrate, work from the structural spec on the job.
3) How many anchors come in a Metallics J7524 jar?
J7524 is packaged as a jar of 10 anchors. The jar pack is the usual count for larger 3/4 inch diameter anchors, so plan quantities in multiples of 10 for a run of strut, equipment pads or pipe supports.
4) Is the J7524 anchor plated for corrosion resistance, and can it go outdoors?
The J7524 sleeve anchor is zinc plated. Zinc plating handles interior and sheltered exterior use, but it is not stainless, so for constant wetting, coastal exposure or chemical environments specify a stainless anchor instead.
5) Should I use a hex nut sleeve anchor or a wedge anchor for mounting electrical equipment to a concrete wall?
A wedge anchor is for solid, high strength concrete and needs a tight, clean hole. The hex nut sleeve style, like the 3/4 x 2-1/2 J7524, works in a wider range of base materials including block and brick, and the hex nut with washer lets you remove or re-tension the fixture later. For wall-mounted panels, transformers and strut in masonry, the sleeve anchor is usually the easier call.
6) What is the exact part number to order the Metallics 3/4 x 2-1/2 sleeve anchor?
Order Metallics part number J7524 for the 3/4 x 2-1/2 zinc hex nut sleeve anchor in the 10-piece jar. One model, one size, so there is no diameter or length option to select.
7) Do I need anything else with the J7524 anchor to fasten my bracket?
Nothing extra on the fastener side. Each 3/4 x 2-1/2 sleeve anchor ships assembled with its hex nut, so you only need a 3/4 inch hammer drill bit, a hammer to set the anchor flush, and a wrench to tighten the nut.
