ABSTRACT:
A metal expansion dowel is made up of an axially elongated cylindrically shaped expansion sleeve and an expansion element formed monolithically with the sleeve. The expansion sleeve has a leading end and a trailing end. The sleeve has an opening with the opposite edge surfaces extending in the axial direction converging toward the leading end. The expansion element is located in the opening and is secured to the sleeve by a separable web. The expansion element is wedge-shaped and narrows in the leading end direction. An inwardly projecting stop is formed in the expansion element. When an axial force is directed toward the leading end against the stop, the web is separated from the sleeve and the expansion element is displaced axially toward the leading end of the sleeve moving along the opposite edge surfaces of the opening and widening the sleeve. Due to the converging arrangement of the opposite edge surfaces of the recess, the dowel has a post-expansion characteristic during subsequent axial loading of the expansion sleeve after it is anchored in place.
