Tractel Dynaplug HF 44 Anchor Strength Measuring Tool

The Tractel Dynaplug HF 44 is a portable electronic anchor tester designed to measure the tensile strength of fixings installed in concrete and other construction materials. Available with test capacities up to 5,000 daN (50 kN), its three-leg stainless-steel tripod design helps minimise the effect of testing on the concrete surrounding the anchor. The adjustable legs provide a working height of 70–190 mm, while the electronic load cell delivers an accuracy of <1% of nominal capacity. Two automatic test programs apply 500 daN for 20 seconds or 1,000 daN for 3 minutes, providing consistent proof-load testing on site. Powered by three AA batteries, the Dynaplug HF 44 is supplied with a selection of adaptors suitable for commonly used anchors.
