What is a Hanger?
A hanger is an innovative anchor crafted to hang threaded rods (or tie wire for light-duty applications) from overhead structures, effectively supporting a wide array of equipment, pipes, ductwork, and other elements. Threaded rods are long, straight rods with threads on both ends, and they are commonly used in construction and engineering applications.
The design of the threaded rod hanger is both functional and efficient. It incorporates either a screw anchor or a clamp, specifically engineered to attach to overhead structures securely. This component has either an internal or external thread that firmly grips the threaded rod, ensuring stability and safety.
Once the hanger is mounted onto a structure like a ceiling or beam, the threaded rod is smoothly threaded through it. The adaptability of these hangers is noteworthy; they can be adjusted to fit rods of different diameters and are available in several designs to cater to particular needs. Whether in industrial settings, commercial establishments, or residential construction, threaded rod hangers are indispensable for safely suspending objects from above or from the side.
Threaded rod hangers offer a highly adaptable and reliable method for hanging various construction elements. These hangers are tailored in diverse sizes and designs to meet different load capacities and specific project requirements.
In the context of Australia's evolving National Construction Code, there's been a surge in demand for high-efficiency, easy-to-install concrete hangers. Screw-in concrete hangers have emerged as a superior alternative to traditional drop-in anchors, thanks to their exceptional performance. Their ability to consistently handle loads has led to many of ICCONS products achieving Seismic certification under AS5216, the Australian Design Standard for Post-Installed and Cast-in Anchors in Concrete. Consequently, these concrete screw-in rod hanger anchors are increasingly favoured in construction projects adhering to the National Construction Code.

How to Use a Hanger
How to Use Concrete Hanger
- Drill Hole: Check the concrete is well compacted and without substantial voids. Suitable for dry, wet and flooded holes. Use drill in hammer mode. Drill according to specified depths in previous tables.
- Blow and clean: Clean the hole from dust and concrete remains. Use a blow pump.
- Install: Select a powered impact wrench or a torque wrench that does not exceed the maximum torque indicated in the Hangers Technical Data. Attach an appropriate size hex socket to the wrench.
- Mount the Screw-Bolt anchor head in the socket.
- Apply torque: Drive the anchor with an impact driver or a torque wrench through the fixture and into the hole until the anchor head washer comes in contact with the fixture. The anchor should not exceed the installation torque as specified in the hanger installation tables.
- The head of the anchor should be set flush with the base material. Install the threaded rod. The thread should be fully installed into the Hanger anchor.
How to use Timber Screw Hanger
- Attach the Hanger to the correct size socket driver and install the anchor perpendicular to the base material substrate. To avoid over-tightening, it is recommended you use the HZSM10D Driver for ICCONS Hangerz. Extreme care is recommended when using an impact driver to ensure you don't over-tighten the anchor. An impact driver with max. torque 250 Nm is recommended to assist this. The head of the anchor should be flush with the base material.
- Install the threaded rod. The threaded rod should be fully installed into the Hanger anchor.
- Installation complete!
How to use Steel Hangerz (vertical anchor installation)
- Attach the Hanger to the correct size socket driver and install the anchor perpendicular to the base material substrate. To avoid over-tightening, it is recommended that you use the HZSM10D Driver for ICCONS Hangerz. Extreme care is recommended when using an impact driver to ensure you don't over-tighten the anchor. An impact driver with max. torque 250 Nm is recommended to assist this. The head of the anchor should be flush with the base material.
- Install the threaded rod. The threaded rod should be fully installed into the Hanger anchor. For fail-safe reliability, use of the supplied optional backing nut should be used.
- Installation complete!
How to use Steel Hangerz (Side anchor installation)
- Attach the Hanger to the correct size socket driver and install the anchor perpendicular to the base material substrate. To avoid over-tightening, it is recommended you use the HZSM10D Driver for ICCONS Hangerz. Extreme care is recommended when using an impact driver to ensure you don't over-tighten the anchor. An impact driver with max. torque 250 Nm is recommended to assist this. The head of the anchor should be set flush with the base material.
- Install the threaded rod. The thread should fully pass through the Hanger anchor. For fail-safe reliability, use of the supplied optional backing nut should be used.
- Installation complete!
