1. Standard Nail Expansion Anchors These are commonly used in light to medium applications. They typically come in various sizes to accommodate different nail diameters and lengths.

Hex head self-tapping screws are designed with a hexagonal head, which allows for easy installation using a wrench or socket. Unlike standard screws, these fasteners have a pointed tip and threads that enable them to create their own hole as they are driven into the material. This unique feature eliminates the need for pre-drilling, saving both time and labor costs during installation.

- Cost-Effectiveness By improving load distribution and reducing the amount of material needed to resist lateral forces, bracing can lead to cost savings in both materials and construction time.

The primary advantage of chemical anchors is their ability to bond effectively with various substrates, including concrete, masonry, and stone. This versatility makes them suitable for use in both residential and commercial construction, as well as in infrastructure projects like bridges and highways.
