Product Description
The Simpson HDIASTH37 3/8" Setting Tool for Hollow Drop-In Anchors is a purpose-built installation tool from Simpson designed to properly set 3/8" Hollow Drop-In Internally Threaded Anchors in hollow base materials such as CMU block and hollow-core plank. Engineered for the controlled, consistent installation of HDIA37 and HDIA37SS anchors, this setting tool helps ensure each anchor is driven to the correct depth, supporting reliable performance across overhead and suspended mechanical, electrical, and fire protection applications.
Key Features
- Purpose-built for hollow base materials - specifically engineered for CMU block and hollow-core plank, so installers have the right tool for the substrate rather than relying on improvised alternatives that risk inconsistent results.
- Compatible with HDIA37 and HDIA37SS anchors - direct compatibility with both the standard and stainless steel 3/8" hollow drop-in anchor models means no guesswork when selecting the correct setting tool for a given project.
- Threaded design for controlled anchor setting - the threaded construction allows smooth, repeatable installation, reducing the chance of under- or over-driving anchors in hollow structural materials.
- Supports a wide range of suspension applications - suitable for use in conduit suspension, cable tray support, pipe hangers, fire sprinkler system installations, and suspended lighting fixture hangers, making it a versatile tool across trades.
Why This Product
- Correct depth, every time - using a dedicated setting tool matched to the HDIA37 and HDIA37SS anchors ensures each anchor is set to the proper depth within the hollow material, delivering the consistent holding performance that improvised tools cannot reliably provide.
- Reduces installation risk in critical overhead applications - fire sprinkler lines, pipe supports, and suspended conduit all depend on properly set anchors; this tool is designed specifically to meet that standard in hollow-material conditions.
- Stainless and standard anchor compatibility in one tool - the HDIASTH37 works with both the carbon steel HDIA37 and the stainless steel HDIA37SS, giving contractors flexibility across corrosion-sensitive and standard environments without needing separate tools.
- From a trusted anchor systems manufacturer - this setting tool comes directly from Simpson, the same source as the HDIA anchor line it is designed for, ensuring the tool and anchors are engineered to work together as a matched system.
