Screw anchors are by far are the best. No need to mess around with adhesives and when they put it in the wrong spot it so easy to unscrew it and relocate things.

Thanks for your entry, Matt! The HUS3-H concrete screw anchors do have that great benefit of being reusable.

My favourite would have to be the HIT-Z for superior seismic performance with HIT-HY 200 adhesive. Well engineered with ribs like no other anchor I have come across. My go to combination for HILTI anchor and adhesive!!!

Have you ever wondered weather a drill hole has been cleaned, worry no more. This combination requires no cleaning meaning efficiency for the contractor and piece of mind for the engineer.

The Hit-Z rods in combination with the HIT-HY 200 do lighten the "worry-load" of the design engineer with respect to whether or not the hole was adequately cleaned during installation. Thanks for your answer, Elwin!

My favorite is the sleeve anchor HIT-SC. You don't need solid material to be able to hold your stuff. No solid concrete, make your own!

HIT-SC modular composite mesh sleeves are a great choice for fastening in masonry. Thanks for your entry, Eric!

My favourite is the HD metal drive anchor because it appears alot sharper than the older SD drive anchor. Looking forward to the 4k metal drive anchor release!

Definately a case of 'bad reception' on my part! Great work!

Posted by Chrisover 5 years ago
Ah it was a joke about high definition, standard definition and 4k and the sharpness of a picture, guess it didn't quite hit the mark.

Posted by Angelaover 5 years ago
Just hammer-in for the installation of conduit saddles or brick-ties. Not sure about a 4k metal drive anchor - but this could be a case of "other people knowing something that I don't" here. Thanks for your answer, Christopher!

My favourite anchor is the sea anchor, because it's highly reusable without significant deterioration of the anchor itself or the parent material after reapplication. HILTI, are you making sea anchors?
The sea anchor concept should offer you some good ideas for branding / advertising your own anchor products.
