Metallics 1401ST – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics 1401ST an anchor, or is it the tool used to set the anchor?
The 1401ST is a setting tool, not an anchor. It's the hand tool used to expand 6-32 machine screw anchors in place after they're dropped into the drilled hole. You order your 6-32 anchors separately; the tool is reusable job to job.
2) What size machine screw anchor does the Metallics 1401ST setting tool work with?
It's sized for 6-32 machine screw anchors only. Setting tools are size-specific, so a 6-32 tool will not properly expand 8-32, 10-24 or 1/4-20 anchors; you need the matching tool for each anchor size you run.
3) Do electricians need a setting tool to install 6-32 machine screw anchors in concrete?
Yes. A lead or zinc machine screw anchor sits loose in the drilled hole until it's expanded, and the 1401ST is what drives that expansion so the anchor grips before the screw goes in. Setting by hammering the screw itself usually deforms the threads. Metallics groups the 1401ST with its electrical anchor and fastener line, so it's the tool for hanging strut, boxes, and conduit straps with 6-32 anchors.
4) What is the Metallics 1401ST setting tool made of and is it finished for corrosion resistance?
Steel with a zinc finish, which is what the "St-zn" in the description refers to. The zinc plating keeps surface rust down on a tool that lives in a pouch or a van.
5) How many setting tools come in a Metallics 1401ST bag?
One tool per bag. It's a single-piece reusable hand tool, so one per installer is normally all you need rather than a bulk count.
