Confast Flat-headed Sleeve Anchor is Now Available

The Confast flat-headed sleeve anchor is now available through direct purchase from Concrete Fastening Systems Inc.

This expansion-type anchor works by turning the flat head clockwise, which pulls the cone shaped internally threaded stud upwards and expands the sleeve against the walls of the hole in the base material. The flat-headed sleeve anchor is a special type of masonry fastener that is manufactured with zinc plating.

“Due to its use in most base materials and its wide range of expansion, the flat-headed sleeve anchor is a versatile fastener choice,” said Bob Carlisle, the founder and president of Concrete Fastening Systems, Incorporated. “The flat-headed sleeve anchor is an excellent choice when working to fasten to dense solid concrete to light hollow block as well as in solid brick and hollow brick.

“The flat-headed sleeve anchor is used in light to medium duty fastening; such as door frames to block walls or stair treads to concrete steps,” he continued. “It can be used in applications that require that the head of the anchor fit flush with the surface of the material being fastened.”
