Itw Buildex 8024957 Threaded Rod Anchor 1/4 in for Steel

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 8024957 is a SAMMYS-style threaded rod anchor designed to suspend 1/4 inch threaded rod from structural steel. The anchor provides a fast, reliable attachment point for hanging mechanical, electrical, and plumbing runs in commercial and industrial construction. With an ultimate pullout rating of 1,510 pounds, it delivers a high-strength connection in a compact form factor. Installation requires no pre-drilling in compatible applications, making it a practical choice for overhead suspension work. Licensed mechanical and electrical contractors, along with structural riggers, are the primary installers of this type of anchor.

This anchor is suited for overhead suspension applications in commercial buildings and industrial facilities where threaded rod support is required for conduit runs, pipe hangers, duct supports, and similar MEP system components. The DSTR 100 designation indicates it is configured for attachment directly to steel structure, making it appropriate for projects where speed and load-rated performance are both required. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 25 units.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style suspension anchor compatible with 1/4 inch threaded rod systems used in standard MEP overhead support applications on steel structure.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors working on overhead support systems. Follow all applicable codes including NFPA 70 (NEC) for electrical support and ASME B31 series standards for pipe support as relevant to the system being hung. Ensure the structural steel member is clean and free of coatings at the attachment point before setting the anchor. Verify that the applied load does not exceed the rated pullout value for the anchor and that all suspended components are properly supported before releasing tension.
