Metallics TS5810D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What drill bit size do I need for a 5/8 inch wedge anchor like the Metallics TS5810D?
Wedge anchors drill one-for-one: a 5/8 inch anchor takes a 5/8 inch carbide bit sized to ANSI hammer-drill standards. Drill the hole deeper than the planned embedment so cuttings have somewhere to go, blow it clean, then drive the anchor through the fixture and tighten the nut to expand the clip.
2) Can I use the Metallics TS5810D wedge anchor in block, brick, or hollow base material?
No. A wedge anchor is a solid-concrete fastener. It works by a clip expanding against the wall of a drilled hole, so it needs continuous solid material around it. In hollow block, brick, or any hollow wall it will not develop load and can blow out the face shell. Use a sleeve anchor, screw anchor, or a toggle type fastener for hollow base material.
3) Is the zinc plated TS5810D anchor okay for outdoor or wet locations?
Zinc plated carbon steel, which is a dry interior finish. It will hold up in a conditioned mechanical room, a parking structure interior, or anywhere protected, but in standing water, coastal air, or anything regularly wet it will rust. For exterior or corrosive duty, specify a stainless wedge anchor or a hot dip galvanized one instead.
4) How thick a fixture can I fasten with a 10 inch long 5/8 wedge anchor?
Fixture thickness is whatever is left over after embedment. Of the 10 inch overall length, you subtract the embedment depth you need in the concrete plus the nut and washer stack; the remainder is your usable grip. Most crews pick the 10 inch over a shorter 5/8 anchor exactly because they have a thick base plate, timber sill, or leveling grout to pass through before reaching concrete.
5) Does the Metallics TS5810D come with nuts and washers?
Yes, wedge anchors ship as a complete assembly: the threaded stud with the expansion clip, plus a hex nut and washer already run onto the threaded end so the anchor can be driven without damaging the threads. Nothing separate to order for the fastening itself; you just need the matching 5/8 inch carbide bit and a hammer drill.
6) Is this an electrical anchor or a general construction anchor?
Both. Metallics catalogs the TS5810D on the electrical side, where 5/8 wedge anchors go into trapeze hanger supports, large conduit racks, switchgear and transformer pads. The anchor itself is a standard concrete wedge anchor, so contractors use the same box for structural steel base plates, rails, and equipment mounting.
