¹Standard depth. ²The values obtained are based on the average of tests and technical specifications, using ASTM A193B7 rod and 30 MPa concrete. Please note: these values are ultimate loads; always use the safety coefficient. The characteristic strength values are based on the combined failure of slip and concrete cone, according to the calculation assumptions of ETA TR029. In this case, the safety coefficients must be considered in accordance with the parameters present in the product certification. 4Recommended minimum distance. 5Values valid for ASTM A193 B7 rods / ASTM A194 2H nuts. 6Estimated values under ideal conditions of use.
