Installation

Installation

Fixing

On concrete:

The US50/50/8G washer is supplied with the MAH485/2 anchor.

  • Mechanical anchor Option 7: FM 753 EVO M16x151 stud
  • Mechanical anchor Option 1: FM-753 CRACK M16x150 stud 
  • Chemical anchor Option 1: AT-HP resin + LMAS M16-170/20 threaded rod

On Timber :

  • Ring nails: CNA Ø4.0x35 or CNA Ø4.0x50 (the number of nails to use depends on the application).

Installation

  • Use only the fasteners specified for each configuration, strictly adhering to the edge distances.
  • Regardless of the configuration, the US50/50/8G washer (supplied) must be used to ensure the loads specified in the table below.

Installation with strap:

  • The MAH485/2 is compatible with the FP40/2 and FP60/2 perforated straps, subject to the following condition: the maximum number of fasteners on the FP strap section alone must equal the number of fasteners on the MAH + FP section.
  • Refer to the nailing diagrams and technical specifications in ETE-07/0285

RECOMMENDED USE:
The use of the MAH anchor + US50/50/8G washer is recommended at the end of each wood-frame wall, at stud spacers, and adjacent to each opening. This recommendation does not replace a verification performed by a competent engineering firm.
