P/N 5900371 — Rev. D2 — May 2023
The diameter of the drill bit must be the same as the
diameter of the Anchor Bolt. If you are using a ¾ inch
diameter Anchor Bolt, for example, use a ¾ inch
diameter drill bit.
5. Vacuum each hole clean. BendPak recommends using
a Vacuum to get the hole very clean.
⚠ WARNING You must use the appropriate safety
gear including safety glasses, dust
masks, gloves, steel-toed work boots
and heavy work clothes when
anchoring the Posts.
You can also use a wire brush, hand
pump, or compressed air; just make
sure to thoroughly clean each hole.
Do not ream the hole. Do not make the hole any wider than the drill bit made it.
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 or too wide,
there is 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 gently tap 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
drops in with little or no resistance, the hole is too wide.
Once past the hole in the Base Plate, the Anchor Bolt eventually stops progressing 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.
8. Plumb each Post; install Foot Guards, any required Shims and or the optional Height Adapter
Trays.
