Our chemical anchor consumption calculator is designed for accurate calculations of anchor consumption based on the diameter and depth of the hole. It is an essential tool for concrete and other construction materials, helping you determine the required amount of anchor for one hole.
To use the calculator, you need to:
- Select the volume of the chemical anchor cartridge (e.g., 300 or 400 ml);
- Specify the hole diameter;
- Set the hole depth.
Please note that the hole diameter is usually 2-4 mm larger than the anchor's diameter. The recommended hole depth is 10 times the diameter of the anchor to ensure reliable fastening.
If you are working with hollow substrates, the chemical anchor consumption may increase by up to 30%. In this case, check the "Hollow substrate" option for accurate calculation.
For hollow substrates:
- Drill the hole;
- Install the perforated sleeve;
- Fill the sleeve with chemical anchor;
- Insert the anchor rod;
- Allow it to fully cure.
For solid substrates:
- Drill the hole;
- Clean the hole of dust and debris;
- Fill the hole with chemical anchor to 2/3 of its volume;
- Insert the anchor rod with a twisting motion;
- Allow it to fully cure.
Our online chemical anchor consumption calculator will help you save time and materials, ensuring accuracy and reliability in your fastening projects.
