Headed anchor bolts are different from bent anchor bolts or anchor rods, because the non-threaded end has a forged hex, heavy hex or square head. The headed end is embedded into concrete foundations to secure structural steel columns, light poles, bridge rail, and substation structures. Available specifications include, but are not limited to, ASTM F1554, A449, and A307.

Note: A threaded rod with a welded nut IS NOT a headed anchor bolt and should not be substituted for an anchor bolt requiring a forged head without approval from the Engineer of Record.

Manufacturing

Portland Bolt manufactures headed anchors from 1/2″ through 2-1/2″ diameter in many different ASTM specifications. They are provided either plain finish or hot-dip galvanized.

* These products supplied as F1554 Grade 55

Portland Bolt stocks these F1554 grade 36 hex head anchor bolts that are ready for immediate shipment. These hex bolts have a forged hex head and are notrod with a tack welded nut. We stock a wider range of F1554 grade 36 headed anchor bolts in a hot-dip galvanized finish than in a plain finish.

Galvanized anchor bolts can usually be substituted for plain finish anchor bolts, especially when a quick delivery is required. If substituting a galvanized anchor bolt is not acceptable, Portland Bolt can always manufacture F1554 grade 36 headed anchor bolts in a plain finish. All stock F1554 headed anchor bolts have a 4″ or 6” thread length.

Hex & Heavy Hex Blank Stock

Portland Bolt stocks both F1554 Grade 36 and F1554 Grade 55 hex and heavy hex head blanks (round bar with a forged head) in lengths of 36”. These blanks can be cut to length, threaded, and galvanized (when required) very quickly. Blanks are perfect for manufacture relatively small runs of custom-sized F1554 headed anchor bolts with very short lead times.
