Drill holes and insert anchors (D).
• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8"
(35 mm) of actual concrete thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill
into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid part of the block, generally 1" (25 mm) minimum
from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90 speci¿cations. It is suggested that
a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid
breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.
• Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete covered with plaster, drywall, or
other ¿nishing material. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a ¿nishing surface is
unavoidable, the ¿nishing surface must be counterbored as shown below. Be sure concrete
anchors do not pull away from concrete when tightening screws. If plaster/drywall is thicker than
5/8" (16 mm), custom fasteners must be supplied by installer.
