3.3.5.1 Product Description

Hilti KWIK HUS-EZ I (KH-EZ I) anchors are comprised of a body with an internally threaded hex washer head. The anchor is manufactured from carbon steel and is heat treated. It has a minimum 0.0003 inch (8 m) zinc coating in accordance with DIN EN ISO 4042. The internally threaded head is larger than the diameter of the anchor and is formed with serrations on the underside. The anchor body is formed with threads running most of the length of the anchor body. The anchor is installed in a predrilled hole with a powered impact wrench or torque wrench. The anchor threads cut into the concrete on the sides of the hole and interlock with the base material during installation. Applicable base materials include normal-weight concrete, structural lightweight concrete and lightweight concrete over metal deck. Guide Specifications Screw anchors shall be KWIK HUS-EZ I as supplied by Hilti, Inc. Anchors shall be manufactured from heat treated carbon steel material, zinc plated to a minimum thickness of 8m. Anchors shall be installed using a drill bit of same nominal diameter as anchor. Product Features Thread design enables quality setting and exceptional load values in wide variety of base material strengths. Anchor is fully removable Anchor size is same as drill bit size and uses standard ANSI B212.15 1994 drill bits. Suitable for reduced edge distances and spacing.

Published ultimate loads represent the average results conducted in local base materials. Due to variations in materials and dimensionl configurations, on-site testing is required to determine the actual performance. 3 Allowable loads calculated with a 4:1 factor of safety. 4 The bottom of the shear plane adjacent to the top of the coupler. 5 Shear values controlled by the steel strength of ASTM A193, Grade B7 (min. tensile strength 125 ksi) screws used to fasten the shear fixturing.
