Simpson Strong-Tie’s large-diameter stainless-steel screw anchors for concrete and masonry are designed for severely corrosive interior or exterior environments. According to the company, the new stainless-steel Titen HD heavy-duty screw anchors (THDSS) deliver an advanced standard of performance for bridge, marine, and water treatment plant construction and retrofit applications. THDSS is now offered in larger 5/8- inch and 3/4-inch diameters suitable for heavier civil construction where corrosive elements pose a hazard to standard carbon-steel screw anchors. All stainless-steel TitenHD anchors are code listed in IAPMOUES ER-493 (concrete) and ICC-ES ESR-1056 (masonry) for a wide variety of applications.
