Metallics J7542 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hole size do I drill for a 3/4 inch sleeve anchor?
A sleeve anchor is drilled at the same nominal size as the anchor, so the J7542 takes a 3/4 inch carbide bit. Drill through the fixture, hammer the anchor in through the fixture hole, and tighten the nut to expand the sleeve in the base material. Total anchor length is 4-1/4 inches, so your embedment is that length minus the thickness of whatever you are fastening plus the nut and washer stack.
2) Can I use these sleeve anchors in block and brick, not just poured concrete?
Yes. Sleeve anchors are one of the few mechanical anchors rated by design for hollow block, brick and stone as well as solid concrete, because the expanding sleeve spreads load over a longer area instead of wedging at a single point. That is the usual reason an electrical contractor reaches for the J7542 over a wedge anchor.
3) Is the zinc plating on the J7542 suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
The J7542 is steel with zinc plating, which is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry interior service. For exterior, damp or coastal work, specify a stainless sleeve anchor instead rather than relying on zinc plate.
4) How many Metallics J7542 anchors are in a jar?
Fifty per jar. Metallics packs the J7542 in a jar rather than a box, which keeps the loose anchors and nuts together on a cart or in a gang box.
