Description

Qualified for static and seismic loading conditions
Standard fractional sizes, hole size same as anchor size
No special drill bit required — designed to install using standard-sized ANSI tolerance drill bits
Removable — ideal for temporary anchoring or applications where fixtures may need to be moved
T50 6-lobe drive reduces driver-bit cam-outs, resulting in easier installation
Countersunk head allows for flush-mount applications that are not possible with a hex head
Serrated teeth on the tip of the Titen HD screw anchor facilitate cutting and reduce installation torque
Zinc plated; not recommended for permanent exterior use or highly corrosive environments
Anchor size: 3/8 in. x 5 in.
Quantity: 50

The Titen HD heavy-duty screw anchor family of products set the standard for high-performance anchoring and ease of installation. The Titen HD (carbon steel) is designed for use in dry, interior, noncorrosive environments or temporary outdoor applications, while the Titen HD Type 316 stainless-steel option offers you long-lasting corrosion resistance for unsurpassed peace of mind. Titen HD offers industry-leading performance even in seismic and wind-governed conditions. The countersunk head style is for applications that require a flush-mount profile. Countersinking also leaves a cleaner surface appearance for exposed through-set applications. The anchor head’s 6-lobe drive eases driving and is less prone to stripping than traditional recessed anchor heads.

Installation

Drill a hole in the base material using a carbide drill bit the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor to be installed. Drill the hole to the specified embedment depth plus minimum hole depth overall (see table below) to allow the thread tapping dust to settle, and blow it clean using compressed air. (Overhead installations need not be blown clean.) Alternatively, drill the hole deep enough to accommodate embedment depth and the dust from drilling and tapping.
Insert the anchor through the fixture and into the hole.
Tighten the anchor into the base material until the bottom of the countersunk head contacts the fixture.

Titen HD Diameter (in.)	Drive Type	Recommended Fixture Hole Size (in.)	Min. Hole Depth Overdrill (in.)
Suggested fixture hole sizes are for structural steel thicker than 12 gauge only. Larger holes are not required for wood or thinner cold-formed steel members.
1/4	T30	3/8 to 7/16	1/8
3/8	T50	1/2 to 9/16	1/4

Caution

Holes in metal fixtures to be mounted should match the diameter specified in the table above
Use a Titen HD screw anchor one time only — installing the anchor multiple times may result in excessive thread wear and reduce load capacity
Do not use impact wrenches to install into hollow CMU
Oversized holes in base material will reduce or eliminate the mechanical interlock of the threads with the base material and reduce the anchor's load capacity
Installation of concrete screw generally is influenced by many factors such as but not limited to, concrete compressive strength, type of aggregate, installation location, installation direction and tools used for installation
