Dowel GB 12x60mm for autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) of the Ytong type. Quantity per package: 20 pieces. 912GB

Ideal anchoring in aerated concrete

The anchor designed for aerated concrete ensures a stable and durable connection in materials such as Ytong or AAC. After screwing in the screw, the tensile force is evenly distributed across the three sides of the anchor, creating an undercut effect that allows for the transfer of significant loads without the risk of the element being pulled out of the hole.

Key advantages

• High strength – the nylon construction with excellent mechanical properties guarantees maximum load capacity in aerated concrete.
• Versatility – in AAC4 aerated concrete, the anchor can be driven into a hole smaller than recommended, while in AAC2 pre-drilling is often not required.
• Aging resistance – the nylon used is halogen-free and does not lose its properties under the influence of moisture or temperature.
• Easy installation – thanks to a length of 60 mm and a diameter of 12 mm, the anchor fits perfectly with standard screws (7‑8 mm), speeding up the installer's work.
• Safety of use – even distribution of force prevents cracking of the aerated concrete, which is crucial when mounting shelves, TV brackets, and sanitary fixtures.

Installation and practical tips

1. Hole preparation – depending on the aerated concrete class (AAC2 or AAC4), drilling can be omitted or a small hole with a diameter of 12 mm can be made.
2. Driving the anchor – gently drive it in by hand or using a rubber hammer until fully seated (anchoring depth 60 mm).
3. Screw installation – screw in a 7‑8 mm diameter screw; the tensile force will be transferred to the three sides of the anchor, ensuring the stability of the entire assembly.
4. Check – after mounting, verify that the element shows no play; if necessary, tighten the screw by a few turns.

The GB anchor for aerated concrete is a practical solution for both professional installers and DIY renovators – simple installation, reliable strength, and long-term protection of the structure.
