Fast installation in bulk
AN-CU is a hammer-in nail anchor: drill through the fixture, insert the anchor, and drive the nail home with a hammer. No threading, no torque — a single action.
What sets it apart: despite the fast installation, AN-CU carries a European ETA1 approval for cracked concrete and an approval for dynamic loads — not a given among hammer-in anchors. The finish is flush and does not protrude from the face of the fixture.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between AN-CU and NA?
Both are hammer-in anchors with ETA1. AN-CU is a nail anchor with a flush finish — especially fast, for high volumes. NA is a hammer-in drive anchor, available with a range of heads (including eye and hook heads).
Can a hammer-in anchor be removed?
No. Driving it in expands the anchor irreversibly. If removal and reuse are required — switch to the TFE concrete screw.
