Types of Red Head Anchoring Systems We Carry

The Trubolt® wedge anchor is Red Head’s flagship mechanical anchor, trusted for structural steel, railings, posts, and bracketing. These anchors are code-approved for cracked and uncracked concrete, including seismic and overhead use. Available in carbon steel, galvanized, and 304/316 stainless steel options for every environment.

When to Use Red Head Anchors

Red Head anchors are the pro’s choice for:

  • Structural steel connections to concrete slabs or walls

  • Mounting mechanical, electrical, or plumbing systems
  • Overhead suspension of threaded rod or conduit
  • Signage, fencing, and equipment mounting

Red Head Installation Tips

  1. Drill with precision: Use a hammer drill and the exact bit size recommended for your anchor.
  2. Clean the hole: Especially important for epoxy and drop-in anchors, blow out all dust and debris.
  3. Install with the right tool: Wedge anchors require a torque wrench; drop-ins need a setting tool; adhesives need correct cure time and temperature awareness.

Always refer to the specific Red Head product documentation for proper embedment depth and spacing.
