Chemical & Mechanical Anchoring

Chemical anchoring is a technique for fastening to concrete and similar substrates that provides more flexibility than mechanical anchoring. Chemical anchoring is used for structural works, mechanical and electrical services installations and also for metal works and carpentry works. In building construction sites, chemical anchoring plays a major role in fixing rebars, threaded rods and bolts as structural works, fixing for ducts in mechanical works and fixing of handrails, supports, rails and window and door frames as metal
works,A mechanical anchor, such as a sleeve anchor, Dynabolt®, wedge anchor or drop-in anchor, is inserted in the concrete and expands upon tightening. This expansion causes the anchor to grip the wall of the hole and provide an extremely strong hold. Whilst being a very popular and economical option, there are, however, some limitations.
