Metallics TS506SSD – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole do I drill for a 5/8 inch wedge anchor?
A wedge anchor is drilled at the same nominal diameter as the anchor body, so the TS506SSD takes a 5/8 inch carbide bit in concrete. Drill deeper than the intended embedment so cuttings have somewhere to go, blow the hole clean, then drive the anchor through the fixture.
2) Can I use the Metallics TS506SSD in hollow block or brick?
No. Wedge anchors like the TS506SSD are for solid, poured concrete only; they expand against the wall of the hole and need solid base material around them. In hollow CMU or brick use a sleeve anchor, a screw anchor rated for block, or a through-bolt with a backing plate.
3) How many anchors come in a box of Metallics TS506SSD?
Twenty-five anchors per box, packed as a box quantity. For a crew setting equipment bases or strut racks, that's one box per roughly six four-bolt bases.
4) Is a stainless wedge anchor worth it over zinc plated for outdoor work?
Yes, where the anchor sees weather, washdown, or de-icing salt. The TS506SSD is stainless, so it holds up in exterior slabs, parking structures, pump pads, and coastal sites where a zinc plated carbon steel anchor will rust at the collar and stain the concrete. For dry interior concrete, plated carbon steel is the usual choice.
5) Does the TS506SSD wedge anchor come with a nut and washer?
Yes. Metallics TS506SSD wedge anchors ship as complete assemblies, each with the expansion clip, nut, and washer on the stud, so nothing additional is needed to set them beyond a 5/8 inch carbide bit, a hammer, and a wrench.
6) What is the Metallics TS506SSD used for on an electrical job?
Anchoring to concrete: strut and rack bases, transformer and switchgear pads, generator and condenser frames, conduit standoffs, and equipment feet. At 5/8 inch diameter it is a structural attachment size rather than a light fixture fastener, and the stainless body suits outdoor pads.
7) What part number do I order for the 5/8 x 6 stainless wedge anchor?
Order Metallics TS506SSD. That is the manufacturer part number for the 5/8 inch by 6 inch stainless wedge anchor, sold 25 to a box.
