Simpson Strong-Tie Anchors
Simpson Strong-Tie Concrete and Masonry Anchors
Simpson Strong-Tie anchors fasten wood, steel, and equipment to concrete and masonry. Titen HD heavy-duty screw anchors lead the list in 1/4" to 5/8" diameters, in mechanically galvanized, zinc-plated countersunk, washer head, and Type 316 stainless versions. Strong-Bolt 2 and Tie-Wire wedge anchors, Zinc Nailon pin-drive anchors, and DIAB drop-in setting tools fill out the mechanical side. Strong-Bond and Timber-SET adhesives, Titen Turbo bits, and Strong-Wall anchor bolts and templates are here too.
What to Look For
- Anchor type. Screw anchors remove cleanly. Wedge anchors set with torque. Adhesive anchors handle rebar and threaded rod.
- Diameter and length. Match both to the fixture and the embedment the job calls for.
- Finish. Use stainless or mechanically galvanized anchors outdoors and in treated sill plates.
- Drill bit. Drill with the bit size the anchor calls for, such as the Titen Turbo bits listed here.

Simpson Strong-Tie Anchors FAQ
Titen HD or wedge anchor?
A Titen HD screw anchor threads into a drilled hole and can be removed, which suits sill plates and temporary fixtures. A wedge anchor like the Strong-Bolt 2 expands as you tighten the nut and stays put.
What tool do I need to set a drop-in anchor?
Use the setting tool sized for the rod, such as the DIABST25 for 1/4" rod or the DIABST37-SDS for 3/8" rod. SDS-plus setting tools run in a rotary hammer.
