Acorn Sleeve Anchor 1/4″ x 5/8″ Zinc Plated CONFAST Duty Fastener

Description

Product Overview

The CONFAST Acorn Sleeve Anchor 1/4″ x 5/8″ is engineered for demanding fastening applications where strength, durability, and ease of use are paramount. Constructed from high‑grade steel and finished with a zinc plating, each anchor resists rust and corrosion even in harsh, moisture‑laden environments. The acorn‑shaped head provides a low‑profile finish that sits flush with the surrounding material, reducing the risk of snagging or damage during subsequent work. With a package of 100 anchors per box, the product delivers consistent performance while offering excellent value for contractors, fabricators, and DIY enthusiasts alike.

Usage

These anchors are designed for a wide range of masonry substrates, including solid concrete, brick, block, and stone. Whether you are anchoring heavy equipment, mounting structural steel, or securing electrical panels, the 1/4″ x 5/8″ size provides a reliable connection point that meets or exceeds industry standards. The pre‑assembled configuration means the installer simply drills the correctly sized hole, inserts the anchor, and tightens the bolt—no additional washers, nuts, or spacers are required. This streamlined process reduces labor time on site and minimizes the chance of installation errors, making the product a favorite among professionals who demand speed without sacrificing safety.

FAQ

What size drill bit should I use for this anchor?

The anchor is designed to match a 1/4″ hole. Use a 1/4″ (6.35 mm) masonry drill bit to achieve the optimal fit and ensure the 360‑degree expansion works correctly.

Can this anchor be used in hollow brick or block?

Yes, the acorn sleeve design works well in both solid and hollow masonry. The expansion sleeve fills the cavity, providing a secure grip that resists pull‑out forces.

Is the zinc plating sufficient for outdoor or marine environments?

The zinc plating offers excellent corrosion resistance for most outdoor applications, including exposure to rain and humidity. For marine environments with constant saltwater exposure, a stainless‑steel variant is recommended.

How many anchors come in each package?

Each box contains 100 pre‑assembled acorn sleeve anchors, providing ample quantity for large projects while simplifying inventory management.

Do I need any special tools to install these anchors?

No special tools are required. A standard hammer drill with a masonry bit, a wrench or socket set for tightening the bolt, and a screwdriver for any additional fastening steps are sufficient.
