Anchor Specications
Tidel recommends using the supplied drop-in anchor kit to secure the unit to concrete floors. This kit
consists of:
6- 1/2” steel drop-in anchors Tidel P/N 501-1078-001
6- 1/2” x 1-1/4” hex head bolts Tidel P/N 501-1051-051
6- 1/2” flat washers Tidel P/N 501-1050-011
Standard concrete (4000 PSI), which can be found in most locations, will provide a suitable base for
securing Tidel equipment to the floor.
When the Tidel equipment is secured to this type of floor, with the above mentioned anchors, bolts and
washers, it will require at least 6,000 pounds of vertical pressure or 8,420 pounds of horizontal pressure,
per anchor, to forcibly remove the anchors from the floor.
NOTE: Although six (6) anchor points are provided in the bottom of the unit, it may not be possible to
install anchor bolts in all points due to obstructions in the foundation, drill drift or other factors.
Anchoring the unit with at least 4 bolts (preferably diagonally opposed), should prove sufficient.
