Product Description
Simpson STB2-50234R25 Strong-Bolt 2 - 1/2 in. x 2-3/4 in. Wedge Anchor is a high-performance wedge-type expansion anchor from Simpson Strong-Tie, engineered for demanding structural fastening in concrete and masonry. Designed to excel even in seismic and high-wind conditions, the Strong-Bolt 2 features dual undercutting embossments on each clip segment that enable secondary expansion if a crack forms and intersects the anchor location - significantly increasing the anchor's ability to carry load should the hole expand. Made from zinc-plated carbon steel, this anchor delivers reliable holding power for horizontal, vertical, and overhead installations.
