Hi Customer,

thank you for reaching out to us. The requirements regarding functionality and reliability of an anchor qualified for cracked concrete applications are very demanding. In order to meet these requirements higher grade materials, additional manufacturing steps and numerous qualification tests are necessary. This results understandably in higher manufacturing costs. Don't hesitate to contact us if there is anything else we can do for you.

Best Regards
Aidan
