Troubleshooting
Anchor spins in the hole during tightening.
Ensure the hole diameter is correct. If the hole is too large, the anchor may not grip properly. Try a slightly larger anchor or consider using a different anchor type for the specific application.
Anchor does not fully expand.
Make sure the nut is being tightened sufficiently. Ensure the anchor is seated properly in the hole and there is nothing obstructing its expansion.
Anchor becomes loose over time.
Re-tighten the nut. If the issue persists, the anchor may be overloaded or the base material may be deteriorating. Consider replacing the anchor.
