The Kermi Expansion Anchor Set ZB02760003 – 160 mm anchors for mounting provides a set of long expansion anchors designed for secure mechanical fastening in masonry and concrete. Developed by Kermi for radiator and heating-component installations, these 160 mm anchors are intended to create reliable load-bearing connections for fixtures that require deeper embedment. The set is suitable for professional HVAC and construction work where durability and correct anchorage depth are important.
Advantages
The 160 mm expansion anchors offer extended length for deep fixtures, ensuring engagement in solid base material and improved pull-out resistance. Manufactured to Kermi specifications, the anchors are designed for consistent performance during installation and for maintaining mechanical stability of mounted radiators and heating elements. The set simplifies selection for installers by providing anchors sized specifically for applications requiring greater anchorage depth.
Suitable for
- Mounting radiators and convectors to masonry or concrete walls
- Fastening heating pipes, brackets and support rails in HVAC installations
- Applications requiring deep embedment or passage through insulation layers
- Construction and renovation projects needing long, load-bearing anchors
When it may not be suitable
These 160 mm expansion anchors are intended for solid substrates such as concrete or dense masonry; they may not be suitable for hollow blockwork, light-weight plasterboard, or thin-walled substrates without additional fixing measures. For extremely high loads or specialized structural anchoring, a structural engineer should be consulted and alternative certified anchors or chemical anchors considered.
Key specifications
- Anchor length: 160 mm
- Intended substrate: masonry and concrete (solid substrates)
- Primary use: mechanical fastening for radiators and heating components
- Typical installation depth: full 160 mm embedment into base material
- Manufacturer: Kermi
How to use
Select an appropriate drill size for the anchor diameter, drill to the specified 160 mm depth, remove drill dust, insert the expansion anchor into the hole and tighten the fixing to expand the anchor against the base material. Ensure the anchor is driven to full depth and that the fixture aligns correctly before final torque is applied. Follow standard installation torque and safety procedures for mechanical anchors and verify load requirements for each fastening point.
What to consider before purchase
- Confirm substrate type is solid masonry or concrete suitable for mechanical expansion anchors
- Verify required anchor length and load capacity for the specific radiator or component
- Ensure drill bit and installation tools match the anchor diameter and embedment depth
- Check whether corrosion resistance or special coatings are needed for the installation environment
Usage recommendations
Use these 160 mm anchors for fixings that need deep engagement, such as mounting radiators through insulation or to thick masonry. For hollow substrates or where higher certified capacities are required, combine with appropriate sleeve fixings or consult product documentation and local regulations before proceeding.
