Types of Anchor bolts (cast in place)

DESCRIPTION


Anchor bolts (cast-in-place) are bolts embedded in concrete while it is being poured. After the concrete hardens, they provide a strong connection point for steel columns, equipment, structures, base plates, etc.


TYPES


  • Hooked anchor bolts feature a hook or bend at one end to improve grip and resistance to pull-out, while the other end is threaded for attaching nuts and washers. J-bolts, which are shaped like the letter "J" with a curved hook at one end, and L-bolts, which have a 90-degree bend forming an "L" shape, are two varieties of hooked anchor bolts.

  • Headed anchor bolts feature a forged head on one end, creating a robust anchoring point, while the other end is threaded to accommodate nuts and washers.
