Product Description
The Simpson Anchor Bolt Locator for 1" Bolt with OST Nut is built to deliver accurate, consistent placement of 1" diameter anchor bolts on concrete-deck forms before concrete is poured. The integrated design pairs a structural heavy-hex nut directly with a pre-formed steel chair, eliminating the need for a separate bottom nut and simplifying the forming process on the job site. Designed specifically for use with HDG (hot-dip galvanized) anchor bolts, this locator keeps hardware properly positioned and aligned so crews can pour with confidence.
Key Features
- Integrated heavy-hex nut and pre-formed steel chair - eliminates the need for an additional nut on the bottom of the anchor bolt, reducing hardware count and saving time during form setup
- Electrogalvanized nut finish - specifically compatible with HDG (hot-dip galvanized) anchor bolts, making this the right choice when galvanized hardware is required by spec
- Designed for 1" diameter anchor bolts - ensures a precise, secure fit for the correct bolt size, reducing the risk of misalignment before concrete placement
- G90-finished 14-gauge steel chair - provides corrosion resistance and structural integrity to hold bolt positioning accurately throughout the forming and pouring process
- Made in the United States - supports domestic sourcing requirements on projects where country of origin compliance is specified
Why This Product
- Streamlined forming process - the all-in-one chair-and-nut assembly removes the extra step of threading a bottom nut onto each anchor bolt, helping crews work faster and with fewer loose components on the form deck
- Purpose-matched for HDG hardware - the electrogalvanized OST nut finish is chosen specifically for compatibility with hot-dip galvanized anchor bolts, so you get a finish pairing that meets project requirements without guesswork
- Consistent bolt alignment on every pour - the pre-formed steel chair holds each 1" anchor bolt in the correct position before concrete is placed, reducing the chance of costly post-pour corrections
- Trusted Simpson quality - engineered by Simpson, a recognized name in structural connectors and anchor systems, giving contractors and inspectors confidence in the hardware supporting the foundation connection

Frequently Asked Questions
- What type of anchor bolts is the ABL8-1-OST designed for?
- The ABL8-1-OST is designed for use with 1" diameter anchor bolts. Its electrogalvanized nut finish makes it specifically suited for HDG (hot-dip galvanized) anchor bolts - order the ABL-OST version when using HDG anchor bolts.
- Why does the ABL8-1-OST eliminate the need for an extra nut?
- The structural heavy-hex nut is attached directly to the pre-formed steel "chair," which serves as the bottom support for the anchor bolt. This integrated design means no additional nut is required on the bottom of the bolt during placement.
- What materials and finishes are used in the ABL8-1-OST?
- The nut is a heavy-hex type with an electrogalvanized finish, and the chair is fabricated from 14-gauge steel with a G90 finish, providing corrosion resistance appropriate for use with HDG anchor bolts.
- When should I choose the OST version of the ABL anchor bolt locator?
- The ABL-OST version - including the ABL8-1-OST - should be selected when working with HDG (hot-dip galvanized) anchor bolts. The electrogalvanized finish on the OST nut is compatible with the galvanized coating on HDG hardware.
