TORQUE ANCHOR

SAF-T-ELECTRO PLATE

26"/36" SAF-T-TORQUE

  

The reusable SAF-T-TORQUE Anchor is made of heat treated forged aluminum, or forged steel.  Both anchors can be electro-plated. It can be manually installed, installed by using an impact wrench or by a Kelly Bar Adaptor on a derrick truck.
 
Currently Available:  46"
Coming soon:  60", 72", 84" & 96"

 

Advantages:

1)  Can be installed and removed easily by one person
2)  More holding power at less depth
3)  Less time to install (average time using a 525 ft/lb impact wrench is 2-4 minutes)
4)  Can be used as a permanent or temporary anchor
5)  Anchor will not deteriorate due to electrolysis if copper coated
6)  Guy wire tensioning can be done by screwing anchor in ground
7)  70% less torque to install than a 10” helix anchor with an 8’/3/4” rod
