Wedge Anchors
The design of a concrete wedge anchor allows for it to anchor fixtures into concrete. Wedge anchor bolts primarily work by being inserted into a hole drilled into concrete. The concrete wedge anchor is then expanded, wedging itself securely in the concrete.

Wedge Anchor Bolt Construction
Wedge anchors consist of two separate pieces that are permanently pre-assembled into a single unit. The first piece is a carbon steel rod that is threaded for a portion of its length. The opposite/installed end of the expansion anchor has a necked-down diameter, or conical space, that tapers outward back to the rod's full diameter.
The second piece of a concrete wedge anchor is a steel slip or sleeve, that is permanently assembled around the conical section of the rod. Each wedge anchor also requires a nut and washer to complete the installation.
