Concrete, Stainless Steel and F1554 Anchor Bolts

These bolts are fasteners that are used to secure a structure, by way of a steel column, to a foundation. These bolts are also known as foundation anchors and L-bolts, which are often confused with and sometimes referred to as J-bolts. They are mostly permanent components that require no updating or maintenance, and are intended to last as long as the structure in which they are being installed.

Where And When Are These Bolts Used?

In any building, facility or structure, various types of anchors are used. When determining the most appropriate type of anchor bolts—as well as their diameters, lengths, grades, and finishes—the most important factors are the materials and structures used in that installation.

What Are Bent Anchor Bolts?

Bent anchor bolts are among the most frequently used types of anchor bolts. These fasteners get their name from their 90-degree bent end and are most frequently used to secure the base of steel columns to the foundation of a building. They can be found in virtually any steel supported structure.

Chemical And Bent Bolt Alternatives

Chemical anchor bolts, also known as epoxy or acrylics, are used in the construction of steel based structures as an alternative to conventional anchor bolts. They may be used to anchor a structure to concrete that has already been poured. Under such circumstances, installation of wedge anchors can also potentially serve as a solution.

Is Anchor Bolt Finishing Important?

The finishing of the bolt is typically not necessary, which is why black anchor bolts are often used. Black anchor bolts refer to anchor bolts that are unfinished. In most applications, anchor bolts will be encased in concrete. For this reason, finishes and protection against to corrosive elements are not major concerns. If needed, hot dipped galvanized and stainless steel anchor bolts are available.

What Is The Standard Size Range Of Anchor Bolts?

Sizes of bolts are determined by the length of the bolt’s rod and the diameter of the anchor. Standard sizes range from ¼” at the smallest—which are frequently used with drop-in anchors for the support of very light materials—and up to 4” in diameter at the largest. Anchor bolts of such larger sizes would be used for especially heavy duty, high demand applications, such as power plants or particularly large structured facilities in which heavy structures must be anchored.
