The Simpson 8" Stainless-Steel Screen Tube for AT-XP, 3/4" Rod is a Simpson engineered anchoring component designed specifically for use with AT-XP adhesive in hollow base material applications. By controlling the flow of adhesive through its stainless-steel mesh, this screen tube ensures thorough coating and bonding of the anchor rod to both the tube and the surrounding base material - delivering consistent, reliable hold where it matters most.

Key Features

• Engineered mesh for AT-XP adhesive compatibility - precisely controls adhesive flow through the screen, ensuring complete rod encapsulation and a strong, uniform bond in every installation
• Stainless-steel construction - resists corrosion and supports long-term durability, making this screen tube well suited for demanding anchoring environments
• Sized for 3/4" rod diameter - pairs directly with the correct rod and hole size for accurate, straightforward installation without guesswork
• Designed for hollow base material anchoring - contains adhesive around the anchor point and prevents it from escaping into voids, so bonding strength is not compromised by the substrate
• Domestic production - built in the United States to Simpson quality standards, supporting consistent performance across job sites

Why This Product

• Purpose-matched to AT-XP adhesive - this screen tube is not a generic option; it is specifically engineered to work with AT-XP, meaning adhesive flow, mesh sizing, and rod fit are all calibrated together for predictable anchor performance
• Solves a real hollow-substrate problem - without a screen tube, adhesive poured into hollow base materials simply drains into voids; this tube contains and directs the adhesive exactly where bonding needs to occur
• Stainless-steel durability for long-term reliability - corrosion-resistant construction means the screen tube maintains its integrity throughout the curing process and beyond, even in moisture-prone conditions
• Straightforward selection and fit - ordered by rod diameter and adhesive type, this tube eliminates sizing ambiguity and integrates cleanly into the AT-XP anchoring system for a complete, compatible assembly

Frequently Asked Questions

What adhesive is this screen tube designed to be used with?

This screen tube is specifically designed to work with Simpson Strong-Tie AT-XP adhesive. The mesh is engineered to precisely control the amount of AT-XP adhesive that passes through, ensuring thorough coating and bonding of the anchor rod to the screen tube and base material.

What is the purpose of a screen tube in anchoring applications?

Screen tubes are used in hollow base material applications to contain adhesive around the anchor and prevent it from running into voids. This containment ensures the adhesive bonds properly around the rod rather than being lost into empty spaces within the base material.

What rod diameter is this screen tube sized for, and what hole diameter is required?

The ATS758 screen tube is sized for a 3/4-inch diameter rod and requires a 1-inch diameter drilled hole. Note that the actual outside diameter of the screen tube (31/32 inch) is larger than the rod diameter, which is standard for proper installation within the drilled hole.

How should the correct screen tube be selected for a given application?

Screen tubes should be ordered based upon rod diameter and adhesive type. The ATS758 is the correct selection for 3/4-inch rod diameter applications using AT-XP adhesive in hollow base materials.
