Fischer Aircrete Anchors FPX-I (Per Pack)

Versions

• zinc-plated steel

Building materials

Approved for:

• Aerated concrete with compressive strength 2 to 7 N/mm²
• Aerated concrete wall or ceiling boards with compressive strength 3.3 to 4.4 N/mm²
• Planked aerated concrete masonry, e.g. plastered, tiled, papered etc.

Advantages

• The FPX-I enables easy tightening via the hexagon wrench using a cordless screwdriver or ratchet and therefore offers top installation comfort.
• The deformation-controlled expansion of the anchor with the hexagon wrench ensures safe, even and gentle installation. 
• The unique 4-way expansion of the FPX-I with a square expansion sleeve prevents the rotation of the anchor in the drill hole and ensures high tension and shear loads, which means fewer fixing points.
• The releasing of the hexagonal wrench guarantees an automatical setting control for each installation process.
• The first steel anchor with an ETA-Approval and fire protection certificate for fixings in aerated concrete enables use for safety-relevant fixings, too.

Functioning

• The FPX-I with internal thread is suitable for pre-positioned installation.
• Pre-drilling enables easy hammering in, even in high-strength aerated concrete. There is no need to clean the drill hole.
• When the anchor is tightened with the hexagon wrench, the internal thread sleeve starts to rotate and the cone is pulled into the square expansion sleeve. The aerated concrete is compressed on the four sides and generates an undercut in the drill hole.
• When reached the optimum expansion, the hexagon wrench is released automatically from the anchor
