PAE – 2-sided post anchors with high uplift and bearing capacity
PA – High capacity utilizing 4-sided design
PAU – Higher uplift resistance and optional bolt fastening to postMaterials: See Load TableFinish: G90 galvanizing, PA66ER-TZ – G-185 galvanizing
- Use all specified fasteners. Install with supplied washer.
- Anchor bolts and nails are not furnished.
- Not recommended for fence posts or other unrestrained (not fixed or fastened at top) applications. These anchors are not designed to resist overturning (moment) loads.
- Anchor bolt installation – place specified diameter anchor bolt at desired location with minimum 4″ embedment into minimum 2,500 psi concrete. A minimum 2″ edge distance from the outermost edge of the post base to the edge of the concrete is required to achieve allowable loads.
- For cured concrete or retrofit installations – use specified diameter threaded rod with MiTek’s CIA-EA or CIA-Gel 700O-C adhesive epoxy, following installation instructions. Contact MiTek Engineering for further information on selecting the proper epoxy.
