Value Collection NFCD58 Drop-in Concrete Anchor 5/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NFCD58 is a drop-in concrete anchor designed for secure fastening into hardened concrete substrates. The internally threaded sleeve expands against the walls of a drilled hole when a setting tool drives the expander plug, creating a flush-mount anchor point rated for heavy-duty static and dynamic loads. Built from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this anchor resists corrosion in standard interior and light exterior applications. It measures 5/8 inch in diameter with an overall length of 2-9/16 inches and requires a minimum embedment depth of 2-3/8 inches. Carpenters, ironworkers, and general contractors rely on this style of anchor for structural connections in concrete construction and renovation work.

Drop-in anchors of this type are used in residential and commercial construction where a flush or recessed anchor point is required in poured concrete, precast panels, or concrete block. Common applications include overhead beam connections, equipment mounting pads, railing base plates, and mechanical support brackets. The 5/8 inch diameter suits medium-to-heavy load applications where a standard wedge anchor would be inappropriate due to surface or clearance constraints. This anchor accepts a 5/8 inch threaded rod or bolt at the installed end.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in standard service environments
• 5/8 inch diameter with 2-9/16 inch overall length suits medium-to-heavy structural connections
• Minimum embedment of 2-3/8 inches ensures reliable load transfer in hardened concrete
• 1 inch thread length accommodates standard 5/8 inch threaded rod or fasteners
• Flush installation profile keeps anchor below or at the concrete surface

Compatibility

Designed for use with setting tool NFCDT58. Intended for installation in hardened poured concrete and precast concrete substrates requiring a 5/8 inch diameter drop-in anchor.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a hammer drill and the correct carbide-tipped bit sized to the anchor diameter, followed by thorough hole cleaning to remove dust and debris before anchor insertion. The concrete must be fully cured and hardened before installation. Use the manufacturer-specified setting tool to drive the expander plug to full depth — do not use a standard punch or bolt as a substitute. Follow applicable building codes and anchor manufacturer load tables when specifying embedment depth and edge distance for structural applications.
