Applications Gauges Strength
• Expansion, resin and undercut anchors. Each gauge has the following features:
• Frames, anchors and screw fixings.
• Structural anchors for safety harness eyebolt. • Maximum load indicator.
• Scaffolding ring-bolt. • Rubber casing for protection against shock.
• Safety anchors for ladder restraints. • Shatter proof glass.
• Built-in protection against sudden load

structure well away from the fixing under test. This can be
achieved by either a load diffusion bridge for verification
testing or, if greater distance is required, by a load diffusion
pyramid for testing to failure. Both of these optional
accessories have large feet to minimize bearing pressure and
are height adjustable to accommodate different adaptor.
Long Pull Stroke
The Standard Anchor System has a pull stroke of 4 inches
(100mm). This longer stroke has the following advantages.

• Complete extraction of most fixings after test in one simple
operation. When fixings are tested to failure, they usually
need to be fully extracted from the base material. With
plastics and other types of anchors, which fail by pulling
from the base material, the extraction can be carried out
without readjustment of the bridge legs.

• Faster set-up saves time on multiple testing projects. Initial
adjustments of the height of the tester relative to the fixing
can be made with the loading handle rather than moving the
bridge legs.
