AnchorBoltSleeves.com
Educational Website Covering Anchor Bolt Sleeves
Our newest website,www.AnchorBoltSleeves.com is an educational website covering technical information and installation instructions for Wilson and Contec plastic anchor sleevesand custom steel pipe sleeves.
Anchor sleeves create an air pocket around the shank of an anchor bolt that has been poured into a concrete foundation so that slight adjustments can be made to the anchor bolts to fit the equipment base, steel structure, or other base that is attaching to the anchor bolts. Once the anchor bolts have been adjusted, grout is cast into the cavity created by the anchor sleeve. Created by our resident anchor sleeve expert Kyle Pettijohn, and designed by our web guru Sarah Kemp, this microsite is geared towards contractors, fabricators, engineers, and fastener distributors who are seeking technical information regarding anchor bolt sleeves.
Do you have questions about plastic anchor sleeves or welded pipe sleeves for anchor bolt assemblies, require a quote, or need to procure anchor sleeves for your next project? If so, contact Kyle.
All Thread Rod
Portland Bolt stocks perhaps the most comprehensive inventory of domestically manufactured all thread rod in the industry. Also known as redi-rod, fully threaded rod, continuously threaded rod, and abbreviated ATR, this multipurpose fastener can be used as an epoxy anchor, embedded anchor bolt, through bolt, and in pipe flanges. We stock 15 different grades of all thread rod in diameters ranging from 3/8″ through 2″ and in lengths up to 12 feet. Mild steel all thread rod is stocked both black and galvanized. We’ll ship stock lengths of 6′, 10′ or 12′, or we’ll cut it to length for you. If the all thread rod we cut needs to be galvanized, we’ll run it through our in-house hot-dip galvanizing line. Check out the Stock All Thread Rod page of our website for a complete list of diameters and grades of all thread rod we inventory for immediate shipment. If we don’t have the size / grade combination you need in stock, we’ll manufacture it in our 85,000 square foot production facility.
