Review on πŸ”© 5-Pack of M8x60mm Stainless Steel External Hex Expansion Bolts by Yasorn by Craig Waters

Revainrating 2 out of 5

too long for use in concrete block wall

ebay recommended these when I purchased a hose reel. Not sure why they recommend them, but they did. Items are metric and there is not installation instruct to tell you what size masonry bit to use. So I used what I had, 3/8" bit. Had to open the entrance of the hole so the anchor would go into the hole, a little small. Then drive anchor in with a hammer. Also cut about an inch off the sleeve before installing in block wall. It tightened up but would twist if I tried to tighten more. Got them to work, but required more effort than needed for this job. Nice that the item is stainless. There are better products than this one for this job

Pros
  • used on pool deck to anchor items & protect from storms.
Cons
  • The bolts are not suitable for heavy-duty applications and can become loose over time with regular wear and tear
