Zinc Plated Lag Shield Expansion Anchors, also known as Lag Shield Anchors or Expansion Shield Anchors for Lag Screws, are designed to provide reliable anchoring in concrete, brick, and block. These anchors consist of a pre-assembled, two-part expansion shield that expands as the lag screw is tightened, creating a secure hold in the base material.
Expansion Shield Anchors for Lag Screws feature precise tapered internal threading, allowing for easy installation of the lag screw. The zinc plated carbon steel construction offers corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability. Lag Shield Anchors are available in both short and long lengths to accommodate different application requirements.
Lag Shield Expansion Anchors are commonly used for anchoring:
- Wooden posts and columns
- Handrails and guardrails
- Electrical panels and junction boxes
- HVAC equipment and ductwork
- Pipe and conduit supports
- Machinery and heavy equipment
- Shelving and racking systems
