High Strength Anchor Rods

[dik]

Looking for a source/specification for high strength stainless steel anchor rod material (1" dia or larger) to be used with a heavy hex nut threaded on the embedded end. Corrosion resistance similar to 316L.

Any suggestions for a spec'd material and/or source.

What material did you use in coming up with the 1" dia. call out?.
What is the standard you are working to?

Come back with a few more details of your requirements as to strenght, corrosion resistance, etc.

Depending on your strength requirements you could use 316 class 2 (strain hardened) material. I have recently seen 2205 used for anchor rods.

I would contact Portland bolt with your specific requirements.

Look for 2205, it is a duplex stainless and will give you superior strength and corrosion resistance.
