CONCRETE ANCHORS FIXINGS AND BOLTS - 8 DIFFERENT METHODS FOR FIXING INTO CONCRETE

Is it possible to combine 2 type of anchor fixing? For example, Resin Set with Sleeve Anchor, will this make the anchor extra strong?

Great work and helped me make a decision!

Absolutely great demonstration video with a cross section view of each type of anchor/fixing.. thank you Sir 👌

I rely on chemical anchors when it absolutely has to stay secure. They are the most resistant to vibration, to corrosion, and to spallation. Being able to reliably anchor close to a concrete edge (because no lateral force is imposed upon the substrate) is a huge advantage. Also, in cold climates they exclude water that can freeze and break the concrete.

A fixing? Never heard of that word before. You mexicans come up with some fiesty lingo.

Fantastic video!!! Its the most informative by far! Thank you so much for the demonstration. I feel better now about what to do for my DIY project.

Clean and informative!

Top video!

Not BOLTS but ANCHORS

Great job

also to note, anything bigger than 3/8th, into poured concrete, needs sds or you will ruin bits very quickly and likely not get to the depth you need. Also this is very taxing on the drill.

Good video. When drilling for an anchor in a thinner slab such as a basement or garage we always drill all the way through the bottom of the slab. If that Anchor is ever not used anymore, it can be tapped through the underside of the slab and the hole filled.

awesome video! great info

great video..esp 4 minutes and 30 seconds.....sleeve archer !!!!!!!!!!!!! which many safes use....tap down... reverse drill to expand anchor...mystery solved .. I did subscribe thank you

clean hole with compressed air ,,, I never did that another great way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks. That was a very informative video! 🙏

Resin injection is the ONLY long term secure fastener, especially if some vibrations are involved, and/or a corrosive environment.

“Job’s a good’n” I’m an American, some of the little things the English say are so endearing. I hate what you’re going through as a people.

Great explanation! Thank you very much! 👍

The block being shown here is aerated concrete, which is much trickier than ordinary dense concrete for securing a strong fixing.

Great video mate and very informative.

I have used all these methods with the exception of the capsule, the only one I use now for the past 15 years are the Simpson titan hd's , these are the only one that do not come loose over time, I have used thousands of them with no complaints and no failures, I install gate operators for a living and we had a car hit one of the gates and the operator was mounted with ( 4 )1/2" x 4" titan hd anchors to a 2' x 2' x 2' 4500psi concrete pad and it actually picked the pad up out of the ground, bolts never snaped or loosened, this actually happens quit often, I guess people can't see a big ole gate closed sitting right in front of them.

Hang on, the sleeve anchor one, the bolt in it is not removable?

Thanks for the video!

I've got the D handle SDS rotary hammer, very similar to your model. It is soooooo much nicer than a hammer drill. It's so smooth, quiet, and it takes very little pressure.

I came up with this ideal after using similar epoxy for rebar into old concrete pad which I think it will last for decades. 1. Drill your hole, 2. Clean the dust out, 3. Add Quikrete FastSet Anchoring Epoxy with a silicone gun into the hole, 4. Using a hammer tap anchor sleeve\bolts in, 5. Excess epoxy will shoot out, 6. Wipe clean, 7. Add mount plate, 8. Tighten up the bolts, 9. Clean up more excess epoxy. Let epoxy cure.

It would be great if you can test the strength for each.

This was nicely thought out. Great video!

I was about to start my video game section and saw this. Screw the video game, this video is more addicting.

you forgot the epoxy one.

That is a thermalite block you are fixing into .

Excellent

I imagine an expandable anchor with resin would be a good combo.

Expandable anchor with resin should work on sun dry adobe and/or clay baked bricks?

Brilliant video - medal well deserved. Now I understand how it all works. Thanks Mike. 🙂

In fact, looking at the other videos, I'm subbed. These are quality handyman videos. 👍

I use plastic anchors, lag screws and construction adhesive. Grabs tight and doesn’t let water get in to freeze and crack the concrete.

Great Video, thanks Mike.
My greatest challenge is drilling a hole in the ceiling with an SDS drill. Never seem to be able to get it straight down.

I'm going to the hardware store here in the "States" and ask them where the concrete fix'ns are located.

Very high quality video. Highly informative, well produced, and entertaining as well. Thank you!

❤ Great high Quality info, very helpful Many thanks 😊....

Sleeve anchor is my favourite

thx !

Great video! Loved it. My favourite is them resin anchors. A bit pricy but in hollow brick walls using a mesh sleeve, they are very trustworthy. Subscribed from Australia!✊

Take one drink evert time he says "fixin". 😵‍💫

i have used whats call a striking fastener very good & quick but not every one sells them

Very good video on a very misunderstood subject . A little trick to save money is to use 3/16 bit , 16 penny nails with plastic coated rebar wire . Excellent for temporary work and if you want add life or weather resistant use hot dipped galvanized. Pullout is extreme shear relatively good

Very nice you explained is so well thank you!!!

briliant video really clear and simple to understand yet also detailed thankyou
