Simpson Strong-Tie DSD25300 DSD 1/4 in. x 3 in. Zinc-Plated Duplex-Head Split-Drive Anchor (100-Qty) (Pack of 4)
Product Description
Simpson Strong-Tie® mechanical anchors are designed to install easily and securely into a variety of base materials, including concrete, grouted or hollow CMU and brick. Specifiers and contractors trust Simpson Strong-Tie anchors for optimum performance under the most demanding structural applications. The Split Drive anchor is a one-piece anchor, with a split-type expansion mechanism on the working end. As the anchor is driven into the hole, the expansion mechanism compresses and exerts force against the walls of the hole.

Design Information and Load Tables
Caution
Oversized holes in the base material will greatly reduce the anchor’s load capacity. For CSD, embedment depths greater than 1 1/2" may cause bending during installation.
Warning
Industry studies show that hardened fasteners can experience performance problems in wet or corrosive environments. Accordingly, use these products in dry, interior and non-corrosive environments only.
Installation
- Drill a hole in base material using a 1/4"-diameter carbide-tipped drill. Drill hole to specified embedment depth and blow clean using compressed air. (Overhead installation need not be blown clean.) Alternatively, drill hole deep enough to accommodate embedment depth and dust from drilling. Position fixture and insert split-drive anchor through fixture hole.
- For CSD, 3/8"-diameter fixture hole is recommended for hard fixtures such as steel. For DSD, 5/16"-diameter fixture hole is recommended.
- Drive anchor until head is flush against fixture.
