Made from high quality forged steel, Vector Bolts have a series of angular facets which resolve vertical stress forces into a cone-shaped pressure pattern. An advantage of this unique design is the greater increased contact area between the bolt and the grout. The wedge shaped design on the bottom of the bolt transfers the tensile load of the stud into a lateral compressional load in the foundation assuring maximum pull out strengths. The increase in load transfer to the foundation results in a reduction of the embedment depth required to obtain full strength of the anchor. This reduction in required embedment depth lowers the installation cost by reducing the core drilling and grouting requirements.
