Minerallac 61162J-2 Sammys Threaded Rod Anchor for Steel, Vertical Mounting

The Minerallac 61162J-2 Sammys Threaded Rod Anchor, Model #DST 200, is a 1/4-14 x 2" steel anchor engineered for vertical mounting into the bottom of steel structures. Designed to accept 1/4" threaded rod, this anchor delivers a one-step, self-piercing, self-tapping installation that eliminates the need for drilling, tapping, or welding on the jobsite, reducing installation time and labor cost on commercial and industrial hanger systems. Finished in durable Electro-Zinc with a silver head, the 61162J-2 is built for reliable, long-term performance supporting threaded rod drops from structural steel members such as beams and joists. Its steel body construction and corrosion-resistant plating make it a practical, code-conscious choice for electricians and mechanical contractors who need a fast, secure way to hang conduit, cable tray, and other infrastructure from overhead steel. Manufactured in the United States, the 61162J-2 is a purpose-built fastening solution that replaces slower traditional methods like drilling and tapping steel or field welding, allowing crews to move faster on overhead rough-in and support work while maintaining a secure, code-conscious connection point for threaded rod drops throughout the life of the installation.

Key Features

  • Length: 2 in overall length for secure engagement into steel structural members.
  • Thread Size: 14 thread accepts 1/4" threaded rod for vertical hanger applications.

Minerallac 61162J – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Sammy part number do I order for 3/8 inch threaded rod on steel?
Order 61172J for 3/8 inch rod. The 1/4 inch rod version is 61162J. Both are the vertical steel mount with the same 1/4-14 x 2 inch screw; only the rod thread in the head changes, so match the part to the rod diameter your hanger detail calls for.
2) Can I install this Sammy anchor into the underside of a steel beam for hanging threaded rod?
That is exactly what it is built for. The DST 200 Sammy drives vertically into the bottom of steel structure and gives you a threaded socket for hanging rod, so it suits overhead drops for conduit, strut, sprinkler or mechanical hangers off steel. It is a one-step install: the screw drives and the rod-receiving head is already on it, no separate anchor and insert.
3) Will a 1/4-14 x 2 inch Sammy work on horizontal steel, like the side of a beam?
No. This is the vertical mounting version, meant to go up into the bottom flange of steel with the rod hanging straight down. For attaching to a vertical face or driving horizontally you need Sammy's horizontal mount version instead, which is a different part with an angled head.
4) Do I need to drill a pilot hole before driving these Sammy rod anchors into steel?
No pre-drilling step is called out. The 1/4-14 x 2 inch Sammy is a one-step install, which is where the labor savings come from: drive it with the proper installation tool and thread your rod into the head. That one-step process is the stated reason it cuts install time.
5) What is the finish on Minerallac vertical steel Sammys, and is it suitable for damp locations?
Steel body with an electro-zinc finish and a silver head. Electro-zinc is a light corrosion coating suited to dry interior use such as plenums, ceilings and mechanical rooms. For sustained wet or corrosive exposure, specify a heavier coated or stainless hanger.
6) Are Minerallac Sammys sold loose or in a container, and where are they made?
They come packaged in a jar rather than loose in a carton, which is how contractors usually buy them for stocking a van. Country of origin is the United States.
