we want to hear from you We’ve expanded our portfolio size with even more cracked concrete, seismic approved expansion anchors, and we’ve increased standard length options giving you the ability to pick the perfect size anchor for the job. Hilti has also increased our approvals for embedment depths, providing the best performance in the thinnest of slabs and the KB-TZ2 is the only expansion anchor with diamond cored hole approvals. With new functional coatings and a unique wedge design, Hilti has created expansion anchors with 20% greater tension values compared to our previous KB-TZ, and the best edge and spacing in the industry. Offering increased performance, an expanded portfolio, and more approvals, the KB-TZ2 and KB1 can be used in more application and jobsite conditions than any other expansion anchor. Start making anchoring easier with the KB-TZ2 and KB1. MAKE ANCHORING EASIER Expansion Anchors KB-TZ2 and KB1 Jobsites are getting more complex and so is anchoring; contractors know installing anchors correctly the first time helps ensure safety and productivity. As the leader in anchoring technology, Hilti understands the need for high performing mechanical anchors that are easier to install. That’s why we developed the new expansion anchors KB-TZ2 and KB1. Used to attach fixtures to concrete or masonry base materials, expansion anchors are the most widely used and most versatile mechanical anchors. Whether you’re making temporary attachments like formwork, working platforms, or tilt walls, or in need of permanent fastening for structural equipment and related anchoring, Hilti’s increased performance of the KB-TZ2 allows the use of an expansion anchor in more applications than ever before. The Adaptive Torque module helps ensure correct pre-tensioning of the expansion anchor every time.
