Itw Buildex 560141 Threaded Rod Anchor 5/8 in 1760 Lb

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 560141 is a zinc-plated steel threaded rod anchor designed for vertical, end-drilled mounting applications in wood substrates. The anchor measures 5/8 inch in diameter and 2 inches in length, featuring a swivel head that allows for angular adjustment during installation. It delivers an ultimate pullout strength of 1,760 pounds, making it suitable for structural rod-hanging and mechanical support applications. Licensed contractors and trade professionals in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work use this anchor to secure threaded rod supports to wood structural members overhead or along framing.

This anchor is intended for use in wood construction where threaded rod suspension is required, such as hanging HVAC ductwork, pipe supports, electrical conduit runs, or mechanical equipment mounting from wood joists or beams. The swivel head accommodates minor misalignment between the rod and the anchor point, reducing installation rework. It is sold in packages of 25 units, making it practical for production-volume rough-in work on residential and light commercial projects.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC, plumbing, or electrical contractors during rough-in framing stages. Drill the appropriate pilot hole in the wood member before driving the anchor to avoid splitting the substrate. Ensure the structural member is adequately rated for the intended suspended load prior to installation. Consult applicable mechanical and building codes, including IPC and IFGC guidelines, when using these anchors as part of a code-required support system.
