Anyone have experience with WejIt wedge bolts?
|
Anyone have any experience with Wej-It's Ankr-TITE Wedge Anchors. They seem like typical wedge anchor bolts, available in SS. I've had good experience with Redhead Trubolt, but those aren't available from my local fastener store anymore. |

KB3s would work. Can you recommend an online source? |
|
A box of 50 Kilti KB3s cost $301.76. That's $6 per bolt. That's too much. I was getting Redhead bolts for around $1 per bolt. |
|
climbtech has powers stainless wedges for ~2 bucks and the KB3's for 3 and a quarter |
|
SS Powers for about $1.99 a bolt: |
|
Locker -- that was a quote provided to me by Hilti. (The price isn't listed on their web site.) |
|
Chinese counterfeits? |
|
I was joking abt the inexpensive ones you got. |

Did this guy give any indication of how he came about getting a huge load of bolts without having any idea of the value? Nice guy? Maybe, but something seems fishy. |

Who were you trying local? |

Locker wrote:"Locker this seems a bit atypical... why would you tell him to raise the price on everyone?" I found the deal first (I think). When I saw them on Ebay at $11.00 per box I about shit. I bought five at first (I think), then contacted the seller and spoke directly to him. At that time I ordered five more boxes (At the $11.00 price) and we spoke more. He asked what I was going to use them for, etc... At that time, I let him know that his deal was great and suggested he might consider upping his price a bit, but to keep it reasonable as to not chase buyers away. He upped it to around $22.00 per box at that time. Still a fantastic price. Why did I suggest it? Because he didn't know the value of the bolts and I honestly did not want the dude (even though a total stranger to me) to totally rip himself off. Just didn't feel right. He could have charged a good bit more. But he was/is a good dude and still kept them cheap.U da man Locker... |

Hilti charges out the ass for all hardware to the average Joe blow. If you are a contractor and set up a credit line with them, and depending on the quantity of goods you purchase monthly/annually, you could get the KB3s for a quarter the price they quoted you. Make buddies with a drywall company foreman and you'll be good to go. |

Oh, also the $300 KB3s must be the 316 SS. Last I checked the 304 SS was $200 a box. I checked about a month ago. |
