Prying can discharge the load causing serious injury (see Troubleshooting Guide , page 16).
  • Page 12: Why A Fastener Holds

    The fastener displaces the concrete which tries to return to its original form causing a squeezing effect. 482-63 Maximum holding power is achieved when the depth of pen- etration produces a bond on the power fastener equal to the strength of the concrete.
  • Page 13 The concrete must be three times as thick as the intended fastener penetration. In most cases, penetration should be 482-85 Wood or Non-Metals approximately 1" to 1 " into the base concrete material.
