Anchor screw – 8 by 60mm

Product Description

An 8 x 60mm anchor screw is a high-performance masonry anchor for secure fastening into concrete, brick, and hollow or solid block. It offers a faster alternative to expansion anchors without requiring separate wall plugs. The 8mm diameter and 60mm length make it suitable for medium-duty applications.

What are the key features of this masonry anchor screw?

These screws feature a thread-forming design. When driven into a pre-drilled 8mm hole, the threads cut into masonry, creating a strong, vibration-resistant hold. This self-tapping action allows for secure and removable fastening in various substrates.

What materials and finishes are available?

Manufactured primarily from carbon steel, these anchors come in galvanised, zinc plated, and zinc flake finishes. Galvanised offers superior corrosion resistance for outdoor use. Zinc plated suits indoor, dry applications. Zinc flake coating provides increased protection for demanding conditions.

What are the common head styles and applications?

Hex head or flanged hex head styles suit heavy-duty applications requiring high torque, ideal for structural elements and heavy fixtures. Countersunk heads provide a flush finish for attaching hinges, door hardware, or covering plates.

These anchors secure timber and metal studs to concrete floors, fix balustrades and scaffolding, attach gates and fencing, and mount equipment and storage racks in industrial settings.

How do I choose between different coatings and head styles?

Choose galvanised for outdoor or moisture-exposed projects. Choose zinc plated for indoor, dry applications. Choose a hex head for high-torque grip. Choose a countersunk head for a clean, flush surface finish.
