Why not manufacture the anchors of carbon steel?
In many applications, we face issues other than the lack of anchors as apart of the façade repair scenario. Excessive moisture migration into the cavity is a common problem with distressed veneers. The excessive moisture can contribute to the accelerated corrosion of the tie. The re-placement anchor should have qualities that exceed original expectations and provide for a long term solution. Austenitic stainless steel and brass have proven to be a stable material that solves functional requirements of the anchor and provides for a long term anchoring solution.
