• Field adjustable design requires no threading of the brace pipe
• The set screw design provides a visual indication that the desired torque value has been achieved

Installation Instructions:

• Insert anchor through the mounting hole and into the structure or seismic structural attachment.
• For connection to Fig. AF085, AF086, AF087, and AF779 seismic structural attachments, the bolt and nuts shall be installed wrench tight (typically finger tight plus 1/4 to 1/2 turns).
• For connection to concrete, wood, timber, steel, and other structures, install fasteners per the fastener manufacturer’s installation instructions.
• Insert Sch. 40 brace pipe into the cast hoop end. The brace pipe should extend a minimum of 0.50" past the back of the cast hoop end.
• Torque set screw until the head bottoms out on the cast hoop end.
• Check the cross bolt and nut and ensure the nut is wrench tight.
