- Drill a hole in the base material using the appropriate diameter carbide drill bit as specified in the product information tables. Drill the hole to the specified embedment depth plus 1/8" for flush mounting. Blow the hole clean using compressed air. Overhead installations need not be blown clean.
- Insert Drop-In anchor into hole. Tap with hammer until flush against surface.
- Using the Drop-In setting tool, drive expander plug towards the bottom of the anchor until shoulder of setting tool makes contact with the top of the anchor.
- Minimum thread engagement should be equal to the nominal diameter of the threaded insert.
Caution: Oversized holes will make it difficult to set the anchor and will reduce the anchor's load capacity.
