metal deck anchors

Metal expansion nuts, often referred to as expansion anchors or expansion inserts, are specialized fasteners that expand when a bolt or screw is threaded into them. They typically consist of a cylindrical body with slits along its length or an expandable design that facilitates outward expansion. The main purpose of these nuts is to create a secure grip within a substrate, such as concrete, wood, or metal, thereby preventing loosening due to vibrational forces, temperature fluctuations, or stress.

Another critical aspect of foundation bolts is their ability to withstand extreme loads and forces. Heavy machinery, such as cranes, presses, and generators, can generate significant amounts of force and weight. Without proper support, these forces could cause the equipment to collapse or become misaligned, leading to costly repairs and downtime. Foundation bolts are designed to withstand these forces, providing a reliable and durable connection between the equipment and the ground.
