Sleeve anchors are a quick, simple and adaptable masonry anchoring system. They are designed for application on a range of materials and for applications exposed to seismic loads. When the bolt of the fastener is tightened, it expands against the base material to create a strong connection and is able to distribute load-bearing weight.

These anchors can be used in a variety of base materials such as concrete, brick and block. The design of the fixings will determine where they can be used, with stainless steel sleeve anchors more suitable for outdoor, wet environments and zinc plated anchors for indoor, dry environments.

Stainless steel is anti-corrosive, even in marine environments, whereas zinc plating can rarely endure prolonged outdoor conditions. They’re well suited for interior use away from the elements.
