Rawlplug ® Concrete Screw Anchor R-LX

Double thread. Double power of properties and features. New line of R-LX screw-in anchors from Rawlplug ®. STRENTGH OF A SINGLE SCREW The ring-like structure and the special high-low type thread is a perfect combination of features that enables the thread to bite into the material and develop a reliable and lasting joint. The functioning of our concrete screws is not based on the expansion principle, but they undercut the substrate in order to be able to transfer increased loads. There is more to that, since the design of the screws enables them to efficiently and evenly distribute the forces affecting them over the entire thread. In practice, this means that force distribution in the substrate is analogical to that of elements embedded in concrete. And the effect? Rawlplug’s R-LX anchors attain the highest available load capacity compared to other anchors in the class. STRONG JOINT.
 
CORROSION PROBLEM – SOLVED Our solution is so powerful owing to the innovative forging and heat treatment process. Not only does it ensure high steel class in the final product, it also enables multiple use in installation. The process has allowed us to eliminate the risk of what is referred to as hydrogen embrittlement which haunts contractors when they decide to use products made of high hardness carbon steel. Moreover, the R-LX screws have been designed in two variants, and come with high-quality zinc electroplated finish or zinc-flake finish of even higher corrosion resistance. The anticorrosive characteristics of the brand’s products have been confirmed in a salt spray chamber test with the result being 1,500 hours! It has ascertained us that the R-LX screws are suitable for certain applications in environments as corrosive as class C5. 100% CERTAINTY OF CORROSION PROTECTION.
 
ASTONISHING INSTALLATION SIMPLICITY Just drill a hole to a diameter slightly smaller than the screw itself by following the clear drill size guidelines provided in the screw product code. A hole thus prepared ensures appropriate screw guiding while its main thread will create precise undercutting of the substrate material as you screw it in. And since this is a one-piece fixing solution, you don’t need to use any washers or nuts. Additionally, the screws require no special tools for installation, and even more importantly – they can be completely removed when needed without making any damage.
 
IT’S SIMPLE. EVERY CONTRACTOR’S NEEDS SATISFIED There is another reason why this product is truly worth your while. The R-LX line is very extensive, encompassing even highly specific requirements and satisfying the needs of professionals from all construction segments. Rawlplug’s screws come with as many as 6 different head variations: hexagonal version with integrated washer, countersunk version for flush installation, internally threaded socket version, threaded rod version, cylinder head version and hexagonal version without integrated washer for temporary fixing. Additionally, each variant covers sizes from 5 to 14 mm and lengths of up to 200 mm. AS YOU NEED IT.
