The Simpson Strong-Tie 5/8 in. x 10 in. Strong-Bolt 2 Wedge Anchor, Mechanically Galvanized is a heavy-duty wedge-type expansion anchor built for high-load structural connections in demanding exterior environments. Constructed from carbon steel with a mechanically galvanized finish, this anchor is engineered for reliable performance in uncracked concrete and uncracked masonry, giving contractors and builders a dependable solution wherever corrosion resistance and structural integrity are both required.

Key Features

• Mechanically galvanized carbon steel construction - provides enhanced corrosion resistance for exterior and exposed applications, extending the service life of the installation.
• Dual undercutting embossments on each clip segment - increases mechanical interlock within the base material, delivering superior holding performance under high loads.
• Tested in uncracked concrete per AC193 and in uncracked masonry per AC01 - gives engineers and inspectors documented, code-referenced performance data for confident specification and approval.
• Approved for horizontal, vertical, and overhead installations - offers flexibility across a wide range of structural anchoring orientations without requiring a different product.
• 5/8 in. drill bit diameter matches the anchor body size - simplifies job-site preparation by eliminating the need for an oversized or undersized pilot hole.
• 6 in. thread length on a 10 in. anchor body - provides ample thread engagement to accommodate a range of fixture thicknesses and installation depths in structural connections.

Why This Product

• Engineered for high-load exterior anchoring - the combination of mechanically galvanized finish and wedge-type expansion design makes this anchor a purpose-built choice for structural connections where both strength and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable.
• Dual-standard tested for concrete and masonry - with testing conducted under both AC193 and AC01, this anchor covers two of the most common base materials in construction, reducing the need to source separate products for different substrates.
• Versatile installation orientation - approval for use in horizontal, vertical, and overhead positions means this wedge anchor adapts to complex structural anchoring scenarios without compromising rated performance.
• Consistent, traceable component materials - the nut, washer, and clip each meet specific ASTM standards, giving design professionals and inspectors clear material traceability throughout the assembly.
