Abstract
An expansion anchor is used in a hole in a receiving material where the hole is undercut. The expansion anchor includes an axially elongated anchor sleeve containing slots extending in the axial direction. Expansion interlock members are radially displaceably mounted in the slots. A fastening bolt can be threaded into the sleeve so that it radially displaces and secures the interlock members in the undercut portion of the hole. Each interlock member has a shaped surface facing radially inwardly in the sleeve and the shaped surface is contacted by the fastening bolt as it is moved into the sleeve. The trailing end of the shaped surface is formed so that it is not contacted by the fastening bolt as the bolt is moved through the sleeve.
