PURPOSE
A drop-in anchor is a female anchor and a metal fastener designed to be used only in concrete. It is not recommended for brick or block materials. The anchor is either made of stainless steel for outdoor use or zinc-coated for indoor use. The installation of the anchor requires the use of a power drill to create a hole of the same diameter as the anchor on a solid piece of concrete. Here are some of the most common applications for drop in anchors
