Cast In Anchor Channels: Embedded Fixing for Demanding Concrete Structures

As a Cast In Anchor Channels Manufacturers, we match product configuration to the application, operating limits, interfaces and acceptance criteria defined for each project.

As a Cast In Anchor Channels manufacturer, Jiangsu Aozheng Metal Products Co., Ltd. supplies a complete range of hot-rolled and cold-formed anchor channels for precast concrete, curtain wall, metro, tunnel, and heavy structural connections. Our factory integrates raw material forming, CNC machining, and surface treatment to deliver channels, T-bolts, and accessories that meet project-specific load and corrosion requirements.

We produce stainless steel, hot-dip galvanized (HDG), and galvanized iron (GI) channels with matching T-bolts and customized profiles. Each channel is supplied with filler to prevent concrete ingress; after the concrete cures, the filler is removed to expose a continuous slot for fixture attachment. This system allows precise on-site adjustment and secure connections without drilling or post-installed anchors.

Our Anchor Channel Range

We offer five product families under our cast-in anchor channel program, each engineered for a specific environment and load envelope.

Product Type Material / Finish Typical Applications
Stainless Steel Channel SS304 / SS316 Coastal facades, chemical plants, high-humidity interiors
HDG Anchor Channel Carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized Industrial buildings, bridges, parking structures
GI Anchor Channel Galvanized iron (pre-galvanized) General construction, interior fixing, light cladding
T Bolt Stainless steel or zinc-plated carbon steel Slotted channel connections, adjustable fixtures
Customized Channel Per drawing / sample Special profiles, lengths, anchor spacing, or mixed materials

Engineering and Manufacturing Approach

We manufacture anchor channels using automated cutting, stamping, welding, and CNC machining. This gives us control over profile tolerances, anchor positioning, and surface finish. Our factory operates on a 32,000 m² site with an annual capacity of 8,000 tons of construction hardware, and we export to the USA, Germany, Italy, the UK, Japan, Australia, and the Middle East.

For each project, we review the required channel length, anchor type (round or flat), edge distance, and concrete cover. We then supply channels with the correct filler material—typically foam or plastic—that is easily removed after curing. We also provide matching T-bolts and H-lock nuts to ensure a secure, vibration-resistant connection.

Application Fit and Selection Criteria

Cast-in channels are used where post-installed anchors are not feasible or where future adjustments are expected. Common applications include:

  • Curtain wall and facade support brackets
  • Precast concrete panel connections
  • Metro and tunnel segment fixing
  • Heavy machinery and crane rail anchoring
  • Seismic bracing and structural steel connections

When selecting a channel, we consider the load direction (tension, shear, or combined), concrete strength, crack width, and environmental exposure. Stainless steel channels are specified for corrosive environments; HDG or GI channels are cost-effective for interior or protected locations. We can also supply custom lengths up to 6 meters and special anchor configurations.

Quality Assurance and Testing

We implement standardized production and inspect after every process. Our in-house laboratory is equipped with a spectrometer, tensile tester, and surface tester to verify chemical composition and mechanical properties. For finished channels, we perform dimensional checks on slot width, lip height, and anchor alignment. We can provide material certificates and test reports upon request.

Our quality management system is certified to ISO9001, and we have also obtained BV, SGS, and TUV inspections for specific orders. This allows us to support projects that require third-party verification.

Installation and Site Support

We provide installation guidance for formwork fixing and concrete pouring. Channels are supplied with end caps and filler to prevent concrete ingress. After stripping, the filler is removed and the slot is cleaned. T-bolts are inserted and adjusted to the required position. We recommend using a torque wrench to achieve the specified preload.

Our technical team can review your shop drawings and suggest channel profiles, anchor spacing, and edge distances. We also offer on-site training for large projects, either remotely or through our overseas partners.

Information We Use to Configure Your Solution

To prepare a precise quotation and engineering proposal, we need the following project data:

  • Concrete element type (cast-in-place, precast, or segmental)
  • Required load values (tension, shear, moment) and safety factors
  • Channel length, profile dimensions, and anchor type
  • Material grade (stainless steel, HDG, GI) and surface finish
  • Environmental exposure (indoor, outdoor, coastal, chemical)
  • Drawings or samples for customized profiles
  • Quantity and delivery schedule

With this information, we can recommend the most economical and technically sound configuration. We also provide samples for pre-production approval.

Customization and OEM/ODM Services

As a factory with our own R&D team, we regularly produce custom anchor channels according to customer drawings or samples. This includes non-standard lip shapes, special anchor bars, and mixed material combinations. We also supply related products such as undercut anchoring systems and facade fixing systems for complete building envelope solutions.

Packaging and Delivery

Channels are packed in bundles with protective end caps to prevent damage during transit. We export via sea from Shanghai port, which is convenient for global shipping. For urgent orders, air freight from Nanjing or Shanghai airports is available. We coordinate logistics to meet your project timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between HDG and GI anchor channels?

HDG (hot-dip galvanized) channels are dipped in molten zinc after fabrication, providing a thick, durable coating ideal for outdoor or corrosive environments. GI (galvanized iron) channels are made from pre-galvanized steel sheet, offering a thinner coating suitable for interior or dry applications. We can advise on the best option based on your exposure class.

Can you supply anchor channels with custom lengths and anchor spacing?

Yes, we can cut channels to any length and position anchors according to your structural drawings. We also offer custom profiles for special slot dimensions or lip shapes. Send us your drawing or sample for a feasibility review.

How do I ensure the T-bolt fits correctly after concrete pouring?

We supply T-bolts that match the channel slot dimensions. After removing the filler, insert the T-bolt at the desired position and rotate it 90 degrees to lock into the undercut. Use the specified torque to achieve the required clamping force. Our installation guide provides step-by-step instructions.

Do you provide test certificates for anchor channels?

Yes, we provide material certificates, tensile test reports, and dimensional inspection reports. For third-party verification, we can arrange SGS, BV, or TUV inspection before shipment. Please specify your requirements in the inquiry.

What is the minimum order quantity for custom channels?

Our MOQ depends on the profile complexity and material. For standard profiles, we can accept small trial orders. For custom tooling, a higher quantity may be required to amortize the mold cost. Contact us with your specification for a detailed quote.
