The Simpson Titen HD 1/2 in. x 6 in. Type 316 Stainless-Steel Heavy-Duty Screw Anchor is a state-of-the-art concrete and masonry anchoring solution engineered for fast, efficient installation and uncompromising corrosion resistance in the most demanding conditions. Built from Type 316 stainless steel - the optimal grade for saltwater exposure and environments where chemical or corrosive solutions are present - this heavy-duty screw anchor pairs that superior protection with an innovative heat-treated carbon-steel thread design that undercuts the base material for reliable, high-capacity load transfer. Whether anchoring structural connections in coastal construction, industrial facilities, or seismically active regions, this anchor delivers the performance and peace of mind that serious applications require.

Key Features

• Qualified for static and seismic loading conditions - meets code requirements for use in seismically active regions, giving engineers and contractors confidence in structurally critical applications.
• Undercutting thread design - efficiently transfers the load to the base material, maximizing holding strength in concrete and masonry without relying on friction or expansion.
• No special drill bit required - designed to install using standard-sized ANSI tolerance drill bits, reducing tool costs and keeping the job moving without sourcing specialty equipment.
• Hex-washer head with no separate washer needed - simplifies installation, reduces hardware count, and delivers a clean, professional finished appearance.
• Innovative carbon-steel cutting thread with minimal carbon-steel content - effectively cuts concrete for positive engagement while limiting the amount of carbon steel in the anchor, which means less expansion stress on the base material and reduced risk of cracking.
• Type 316 stainless-steel construction - provides superior long-lasting corrosion resistance compared to standard grades, making this anchor the right choice for saltwater, chemical, and other extreme or corrosive environments.
• Single-use design - installing the anchor one time only preserves full thread integrity and load capacity; reinstallation can cause excessive thread wear and reduce performance.
• Installs with an impact wrench or hand tool - compatible with a 3/4 in. wrench, offering flexibility to work efficiently with power tools or standard hand tools depending on site conditions.

Why This Product

• Built for corrosive and extreme environments - Type 316 stainless steel is specifically identified as the optimal grade when saltwater exposure or chemical and corrosive solutions are present, making this anchor a purpose-matched solution rather than a general-purpose compromise.
• Seismic qualification adds project versatility - approval for both static and seismic loading conditions means a single anchor product can satisfy a wider range of structural and code requirements across different project types and geographic regions.
• Faster, simpler installation with no specialty tooling - compatibility with standard ANSI tolerance drill bits and a hex-washer head that eliminates the need for a separate washer reduces setup time and keeps material costs in check on any job site.
• Engineered load transfer, not just expansion - the undercutting thread design actively engages the base material to transfer load mechanically, providing a more positive and reliable connection in concrete and masonry than traditional expansion-style anchors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What environments is the Type 316 stainless-steel Titen HD anchor best suited for?

Type 316 is the optimal choice for applications in corrosive or extreme environments such as salt water, or when chemical or corrosive solutions are present. It provides superior long-lasting corrosion resistance compared to standard stainless-steel grades.

Do I need a special drill bit to install this anchor?

No special drill bit is required. The Titen HD screw anchor is designed to install using standard-sized ANSI tolerance drill bits, making installation straightforward without the need for specialized tooling.

Can the Titen HD screw anchor be removed and reinstalled?

No. Use a Titen HD screw anchor one time only - installing the anchor multiple times may result in excessive thread wear and reduce load capacity.

Is this anchor approved for seismic applications?

Yes. The Titen HD screw anchor is qualified for both static and seismic loading conditions, making it suitable for use in seismically active regions where code-compliant anchoring is required.
