1 Blue Banger Hanger Cast-In-Place, Internally Insert Wood-Form Insert Multi-thread, cast-in-place wood-form and metal-deck inserts for cracked and uncracked concrete maximize jobsite efficiency and reduce inventory commitment. Also available in metal-roof-deck insert version, offering a low-profile design that does not interfere with roofing material. Features Code listed under the /IRC in accordance with AC6 for cracked and uncracked concrete applications, per ICC-ES ESR-30 Multi-thread design allows insert to accept multiple rod diameters Blue plastic ring acts as an insert locator when forms are removed Plastic ring creates a countersunk recess to keep internal threads clean from concrete residue Nails snap off with a hammer strike after the forms are removed Material: Carbon steel Coating: Yellow zinc dichromate coating Codes: ICC-ES ESR-30; Factory Mutual 303 (see pipe size limit tables); Underwriters Laboratories File Ex3605 (see pipe size limit tables) Installation 1. Strike the top of the hanger and drive the 3 mounting nails into the forming material until the bottom of the hanger is flush with the bottom of the plywood. The hanger should be sitting 90 from the forming material.. Once concrete is hardened and forms are stripped, strike the mounting nails to break them off. 3. Insert the rod into the sleeve and thread it into the hanger. Cracked Concrete CODE LISTED Installation Sequence Patented multi-thread design allows one product to handle up to three rod diameters.
