ANCHORING MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SUPPORTS

Building design is becoming increasingly complex and many structures have a mass of pipes, tubes and cables suspended from the ceiling.

So at Hilti we’ve developed a wide range of versatile cast-in-place and post-installed anchor solutions.

We also offer a range of back up services to help with design, design software, onsite testing and consultation, training, technical data and documentation.

WHICH ANCHOR SYSTEM DO I USE FOR MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SUPPORTS

We rigorously test our anchor systems to measure their resilience to fire, corrosion, static, dynamic and seismic loads. They are all code and regulation compliant.

We offer a range of anchors, including screw anchors, expansion anchors and drop-in anchors.

Our Hilti HST3 screw and HUS3 expansion are particularly useful for ceiling anchoring and tight spaces.
