An expansion anchor includes an anchor bolt and an expansion sleeve which encompasses the anchor bolt. The anchor bolt has an expansion-sleeve expansion region and an expansion-element expansion region. The expansion sleeve has an expansion element which is disposed on the expansion sleeve. The expansion sleeve is radially displaceable by the expansion-sleeve expansion region and the expansion element is radially displaceable by the expansion-element expansion region. The expansion element is disposed on the expansion sleeve on a side of the expansion sleeve that radially faces the anchor bolt.

Expansion anchor with additional expansion element

An expansion anchor includes an anchor bolt and an expansion sleeve which surrounds the anchor bolt. The expansion sleeve has an expansion tongue and an anchor tongue and the anchor bolt has a backward-pointing expansion slope for radially displacing the expansion tongue and a backward-pointing anchor slope for radially displacing the anchor tongue. The backward-pointing anchor slope extends more steeply than the backward-pointing expansion slope at least in some regions.

Expansion anchor with different expansion angles

A disassembly method for an anchor that is anchored in a hole and that has an anchor bolt is provided, whereby, during the disassembly procedure, a torque is applied to the bolt of the anchor that is anchored in the hole and, in this process, the anchor bolt is stressed until it breaks. An anchor which has a head and whose bolt has an engaging profile so that a torque can be applied to the anchor bolt is also provided.

Expansion anchor and method for disassembling an expansion anchor

A method for manufacturing an expansion anchor is provided, in which a bolt is provided, which includes an expansion body for expanding an expansion sleeve surrounding the bolt, an annular sleeve blank having an opening is provided, the bolt is introduced into the opening of the annular sleeve blank, and the annular sleeve blank is reduced in diameter while the bolt is located in the opening of the annular sleeve blank. The invention also relates to expansion anchors, which may be obtained with the aid of the method according to the invention, in particular bolt-type anchors having closed annular expansion sleeves and, in particular, anchors having expansion sleeves with protruding noses, which are each situated on a closing fold of the expansion sleeve.
