Rod hangers are designed to suspend or fasten threaded rods from walls, concrete slabs and steel / wooden beams. These high-strength screw anchors can be used to hang pipes, trays and equipment. Raptor Supplies offers a wide range of horizontal, vertical and Vertigo+ rod hanger anchors from DEWALT, Powers Fasteners and Sammys.
Features
Users can securely attach rods to the hangers, which are then connected to mechanical and electrical equipment installed on / near the ceiling.
Selected rod hangers can be clipped to support beams in the ceiling and pounded in place with a hammer instead of relying on screws or nails.
Threaded rod anchors are used to hang threaded rods vertically in concrete.

For Wood
Anchors for wood require a drill and a drive socket (sold separately).
