Abstract: An anchor for use in slab facings comprises an anchor bolt (2), which has an inner end that is adapted to be inserted into and to be embedded in mortar in a hole (6) formed in a wall (7) to be faced and an outer end provided with a transverse rod (1) for insertion into at least one bore formed in at least one edge face of at least one facing slab (9). To ensure that the anchor can be economically fixed and that the facing slabs can be mounted quickly, the anchor bolt (2) is provided at its inner end with a cylindrical enlarged portion (4), which has an embossed or channeled peripheral surface, and the anchor bolt is provided between the transverse rod (1) and the enlarged portion (4) with a driving sleeve (3), which is slidably mounted on the bolt and has a serrated or finned surface, which is larger in outside diameter than the enlarged portion (4).
