When you need a fastener that disappears into the surface and still holds firm, standard hex-head anchors fall short. Contractors, framers, and serious DIYers working on concrete floors, masonry walls, and structural brackets know the frustration of bolt heads that stick up, catch on fixtures, or simply look unfinished. These countersunk head sleeve anchor expansion bolts are engineered for exactly those situations — delivering a clean, flush-mount result without sacrificing holding power.
Each set contains sleeve anchor expansion bolts in your chosen size and pack quantity. The bolts are manufactured from carbon steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. Size options span M8 (8mm diameter) and M10 (10mm diameter), with lengths ranging from 52mm (≈2") up to 202mm (≈7-15/16"), covering thin-fixture attachments all the way to deep embedment in thick concrete. Pack sizes range from 5 to 100 pieces to suit single-job needs or bulk project requirements.
Typical applications include anchoring door frame sills and threshold tracks to concrete slabs, securing stair stringers and handrail posts to masonry, fastening equipment bases and machinery mounts where a flush surface is required, and attaching framing ledgers or shelf brackets to block or brick walls. The cross (Phillips) drive on the countersunk head makes installation straightforward with standard tooling.

A general rule: the anchor embedment depth should be at least 4× the bolt diameter. For M8 bolts, aim for at least 32mm (≈1-1/4") of embedment into the base material; for M10, at least 40mm (≈1-9/16"). Add the thickness of the fixture being fastened to determine the total bolt length needed. For example, fastening a 20mm bracket with an M8 bolt typically calls for a 52mm (≈2") or 72mm (≈2-13/16") anchor.
Load capacity depends on the base material strength, embedment depth, and edge/spacing distances. In standard concrete (≥C20/25), M8 sleeve anchors generally support tensile loads of 3–6 kN and shear loads of 5–9 kN; M10 anchors typically handle 5–10 kN tensile and 8–14 kN shear. Always consult a structural engineer for safety-critical applications.
These bolts feature a zinc-plated finish that provides moderate corrosion resistance, making them suitable for covered outdoor areas and occasional moisture exposure. For continuously wet, coastal, or fully exposed outdoor installations, stainless steel anchors are generally recommended for long-term performance.
These countersunk sleeve anchors are designed for use in solid concrete, brick, block, and other solid masonry materials. They are not recommended for hollow block, drywall, or soft/crumbling substrates. If you are unsure whether your base material qualifies, contact us before ordering.
Yes. These anchors use standard metric coarse threads — M8 (1.25mm pitch) and M10 (1.5mm pitch) — compatible with standard metric nuts, washers, and fixtures available at any hardware store. No proprietary hardware is required.
Yes. Use a carbide-tipped masonry or hammer drill bit matching the anchor diameter — an 8mm bit for M8 anchors and a 10mm bit for M10 anchors. A hammer drill is strongly recommended for concrete; a rotary drill may be used for softer masonry. Drill the hole to the full anchor length, blow out the dust, then insert and tighten the anchor.
The countersunk (flat) head sits flush with or below the surface of the fixture, eliminating protrusions that could snag clothing, equipment, or create trip hazards. This makes them ideal for flooring tracks, stair stringers, door frames, and any application where a clean, low-profile finish matters. Hex head anchors are generally easier to install with a wrench but leave a raised head above the surface.
