The Wej-It Original wedge anchor provides a secure hold in solid masonry and uncracked concrete, meets Federal Specification GSA FFS-325 Group II Type 4 Class 1, and complies with former ICC-ES Legacy Report #1821 code. The anchor consists of a carbon steel body, washer, and nut, and is zinc-plated for corrosion resistance. It must be installed into a drilled hole with a diameter equal to that of the anchor to an embedment depth of 2" or greater. The washer lies flush against the mounting surface when the anchor is inserted into the hole. Tightening the nut activates the positive wedge connection on each side to secure the anchor in place and help prevent loosening when under vibratory loads. The anchor has been assembled with the included nut and washer to facilitate installation.SpecificationsUltimate Tensile Strength for Static LoadsAnchor Diameter2,000-psi Limestone Aggregate @ Embedment Depth3,000-psi Unreinforced Stone Aggregate Concrete @ Embedment Depth5,000-psi Unreinforced Stone Aggregate Concrete @ Embedment Depth1/4"1,132 lb. @ 1-1/8"1,320 lb. @ 1-1/8"1,760 lb. @ 1-1/8"5/16"1,308 lb. @ 1-1/4"2,057 lb. @ 1-1/4"2,742 lb. @ 1-1/4"3/8"994 lb. @ 1-1/4"2,876 lb. @ 1-1/2"3,834 lb. @ 1-1/2"1/2"1,542 lb. @ 1-3/4"3,473 lb. @ 2-1/4"5,789 lb. @ 2-1/4"5/8"Not available7,582 lb. @ 3-1/2"12,636 lb. @ 3-1/2"3/4"Not available11,579 lb. @ 3"19,299 lb. @ 3"7/8"Not available15,266 lb. @ 4-1/2"25,444 lb. @ 4-1/2"1"Not available16,351 lb. @ 5-1/2"27,252 lb. @ 5-1/2"Ultimate Shear Strength for Static LoadsAnchor Diameter2,000-psi Limestone Aggregate @ Embedment Depth3,000-psi Unreinforced Stone Aggregate Concrete @ Embedment Depth5,000-psi Unreinforced Stone Aggregate Concrete @ Embedment Depth1/4"1,211 lb. @ 1-1/8"1,751 lb. @ 1-1/8"2,316 lb. @ 1-1/8"5/16"1,210 lb. @ 1-1/4"1,839 lb. @ 1-1/4"2,530 lb. @ 1-1/4"3/8"1,223 lb. @ 1-1/4"4,286 lb. @ 1-1/2"5,213 lb. @ 1-1/2"1/2"3,009 lb. @ 1-3/4"7,138 lb. @ 2-1/4"10,748 lb. @ 2-1/4"5/8"Not available10,719 lb. @ 3-1/2"15,583 lb. @ 3-1/2"3/4"Not available15,537 lb. @ 3"21,000 lb. @ 3"7/8"Not availableNot available25,099 lb. @ 4-1/2"1"Not availableNot available33,083 lb. @ 5-1/2"Warning: Use one-fourth or less of listed maximum values for safe working loads (as required by local regulations).
