      Can you show how to remove the anchors?

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 5 lety +2

      Concrete anchors are not designed to be removed. This makes them more secure because they are actually anchored into the concrete, which means they can't be removed without heavily damaging the anchor or concrete. You can use a sawzall or similar tool to remove the tops of wedge or sleeve anchors.

    • @GalaxyGoose6
      @GalaxyGoose6 Před 2 lety

      I somewhat agree somewhat disagree. The only problem with doing that is that there would be no need for general handymen and even more skilled masons and carpenters and what not. This means that by doing that we could be trimming down on many men and womens livelyhoods which could be worse. But at the same time if you want to know or learn this kind of thing the opportunities are most often available to you.

    Video on fasteners was very easy to follow with an explanation of product and use. I have used stainless steel screws and washers for my screen enclosure in Florida and I am extremely happy with their performance and appearance after three years. The washers were recommended by Albany because of use and dissimilar metals which can cause some corrosion. So far no corrosion has occurred and I am extremely happy with their performance and their cost.

    This was a very helpful vidoe demo. I went and bought the second bolt anchor. I poured square footings to support a trellis archway. I'm using an L bracket to bolt the 2x4 against so it needs to be secured in the concrete. I just put them in before it was solid cured. Once it's completely dried I'll tighten up the bolts.

    Great video. Thank you. I have to hang a 8 foot by 4 foot 600 lb mural to a cement wall. The mural is tile on a 1/2 inch cement board with a 1/2 inch plywood backing. I was thinking of attaching the ceramic tile mural to a 2x4 wood beam (one horizontally across the top and one horizontally across the bottom)and then attaching the 2x4 wood to the cement wall. I would drive a 4 inch screw through the mural, cement board, wood, and then, into the cement wall with a drop in anchor. There would be four screw across the top and three across the bottom. Is this what you suggest? Am I thinking correctly? Do you think I even need the 2x4? with this plan is the screw too long to handle that weight?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for posting this helpful video! I can see the differences between the Lag shield and drop-in anchors (no permanent stud sticking out) vs. the Wedge and Sleeve anchors. Can you comment on how to decide between Wedge and Sleeve anchors. They seem pretty similar, but there must be some general guide to selecting between them...

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 5 lety +5

      Which anchor to use, and what material to get the anchor in, will depend heavily on your application. As a basic rule of thumb, Wedge anchors can only be used in solid concrete and they generally have the highest and most consistent holding values in concrete while Sleeve anchors are usable in concrete, brick or block but their holding values are less than wedge anchors anchors in terms of shear and pullout. If you're ever unsure, you can try asking an engineer or just give us a call at 866-573-0445.
