Important: The holding strength of an Anchor Bolt is partially based on the how cleanly the
Expansion Sleeve presses against the Concrete. If the hole is dirty, the Expansion
Sleeve does not press as cleanly, which means less holding strength. If the hole is
too wide, the Expansion Sleeve does not press against the Concrete with as much
force, again resulting in less holding strength.
6. Make sure the Washer and Nut are in place, then insert the Anchor Bolt into the hole.
The Expansion Sleeve of the Anchor Bolt may prevent the Anchor Bolt from passing through the
hole in the Base Plate; this is normal. Use a hammer or mallet to get the Expansion Sleeve through
the Base Plate and into the hole.
Even using a hammer or mallet, the Anchor Bolt should only go into the hole part of the way; this is
normal. If the Anchor Bolt goes all the way in with little or no resistance, the hole is too wide.
Once past the hole in the Base Plate, the Anchor Bolt eventually stops going down into the hole as
the Expansion Sleeve contacts the sides of the hole; this is normal.
7. Hammer or mallet the Anchor Bolt the rest of the way down into the hole.
Stop when the Washer is snug against the Base Plate.
