FAQ

What size drill bit should I use for this anchor?

The recommended drill bit size for the PW‑3C wedge anchor is ½ inch (12.7 mm). Using the correct diameter ensures optimal expansion of the wedge and maximizes load‑bearing capacity.

Can this anchor be used in cracked or uneven concrete?

While the anchor performs best in solid, intact concrete, it can still be installed in mildly cracked surfaces provided the cracks are not wider than ¼ inch. For severely damaged substrates, a repair or alternative anchoring method is advised.

Is the anchor suitable for outdoor applications?

Yes. The hardened steel material is treated to resist corrosion, making the PW‑3C appropriate for exterior installations, including exposed structural connections and outdoor equipment mounting.

What is the load rating for this 3‑inch wedge anchor?

According to Perma‑Cast specifications, the PW‑3C offers a tensile load capacity of approximately 1,800 lb (8.0 kN) when installed in standard concrete with a compressive strength of 4,000 psi.

Do you offer any warranty or guarantee?

Perma‑Cast provides a limited one‑year warranty covering material defects and manufacturing errors. Should any issue arise within this period, the anchor can be replaced or refunded in accordance with the warranty terms.
