Minerallac 61182J Sammys Vertical Mount Threaded Rod Anchor, Steel
The Minerallac 61182J Sammys screw anchor is engineered for fast, one-step installation of threaded rod directly into wood structural members. Sized at 3/8 x 2-1/2" and designed for vertical mounting, this Model #GST 25-380 anchor accepts 3/8" threaded rod and is built from durable steel with an Electro-Zinc finish for corrosion resistance. Each jar contains a 100 pack, giving electrical and mechanical contractors a ready supply for hanger and support installations without the need for pre-drilling or separate hardware. Sammys anchors are widely used by electrical, mechanical, and fire-protection trades that need to hang threaded rod quickly from overhead wood framing without the labor of drilling pilot holes and installing separate expansion anchors, making them a practical choice for high-volume commercial installations. The vertical mount design allows the anchor to be driven straight up into the underside of a wood joist, beam, or truss, so the threaded rod hangs plumb and ready to accept hangers, clevises, or all-thread couplings for conduit, cable tray, and mechanical support runs. This design eliminates a separate pre-drilling step and a separate anchor, cutting installation time significantly on large overhead support runs where dozens or hundreds of rod drops are required.

Why Minerallac?
Minerallac's 61182J Sammys screw anchor delivers steel construction with an Electro-Zinc finish designed for durable, corrosion-resistant performance in wood-frame support applications. The one-step vertical installation design saves labor time on the jobsite, and the bulk jar packaging of 100 pieces keeps crews stocked for larger installation runs without interruption. For contractors installing threaded rod for conduit, cable tray, HVAC, or fire sprinkler support, the 61182J offers a dependable, code-friendly way to speed up overhead work while maintaining strong, corrosion-resistant connections in wood structural members. With a silver 5/8" AF end-drilled head sized for 3/8" threaded rod, the 61182J is easy to identify and install using a standard drill/driver, cutting labor time versus predrilling and setting a separate expansion anchor for every hanger point.
