Elephant Foot™ Ferrule Steel or Stainless Steel Metric Threaded Inserts (TCM)

The Reid™ Stainless Steel Elephant Foot™ Ferrule is purpose-designed for demanding civil and infrastructure environments where long service life, corrosion resistance, and uncompromising structural reliability are essential. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this ferrule maintains mechanical performance in aggressive environments including marine structures, water utilities, tunnels, treatment plants, and exposed transport infrastructure.

Its distinctive footed profile maximises concrete breakout capacity without requiring a cross bar, while the waisted design ensures the threaded section maintains ductile behaviour in accordance with AS 3850 requirements. Pre-threaded to ISO metric coarse standards, the ferrule forms part of the Reid™ Metric Bolted Connection System — delivering secure, durable, and easily installed fixing points for structural attachments, services, façade elements, access systems, and civil hardware.
