TORQ Heavy Duty Shield Anchor TSB

The Helical TSB Shield Anchor is a medium to heavy duty metal expansion sleeve anchor designed for secure fastening into concrete, solid cement block, and hollow cement block substrates. The anchor expands inside the drilled hole as the bolt is tightened, creating a reliable mechanical fixing for structural and non-structural applications including steel brackets, handrails, support frames, MEP installations, cable trays, machinery fixings, and general construction works.

The TORQ TSB Shield Anchor is a metal expansion anchor engineered to provide dependable fastening performance in concrete and masonry construction materials. Designed for medium to heavy duty applications, the anchor consists of an expansion sleeve that mechanically grips the base material when the fixing bolt is tightened. This expansion action creates strong resistance against tensile andshear forces, making it suitable for demanding construction environments.

The TSB Shield Anchor is commonly used where contractors require a robust fastening solution that can be installed quickly using standard drilling and installation tools. It is suitable for fixing steel structures, support brackets, cable management systems, machinerybases, handrails, balustrades, façade components, MEP services, and general construction fixtures.

The anchor is available in multiple sizes ranging from M6 to M16, allowing engineers and contractors to select the most suitable fixing based on the anticipated load requirements and substrate conditions. Carbon steel versions are manufactured from hardened AISI C1022steel with zinc plating, while stainless steel A2 and A4 versions can be supplied upon request for projects requiring enhanced corrosionresistance.

In concrete applications, the TSB Shield Anchor provides strong load-bearing performance under both tensile and shear loading conditions. The anchor can also be used in solid and hollow cement block applications where reliable mechanical anchoring is required. Additionally, the system can be used with threaded studs where project requirements demand specific installation configurations.
