Tapcon Concrete Anchors For Exterior Walls

Mechanical type concrete anchors deliver their holding values from friction.

Tapcon concrete anchors for exterior walls.

Tapcon is a brand name of the concrete screw that is made by the original manufacturer and is an american made product. You might want to secure it more frequently for purposes of vibration noise reduction or if your concrete is suspect but beyond that you re wasting fasteners drill bits and time. Use tapcon screws and drill bits together along with the tapcon pro installation kit to utilize the high performing trusted tapcon anchoring system. Tapcon anchors the original masonry anchor that cuts its own threads into concrete brick or block.

All concrete screws that are manufactured generically do not meet the same standards of thread design rust resistance and ease of insertion. A 3 16 tapcon embedded in normal concrete one inch deep has a sheer strength of over 700 pounds. Our concrete screw anchors deliver 30 less torque and 20 more holding power while our drill bits make it possible to create precise holes at maximum power. And their unmatched performance in concrete block and brick applications make them an excellent alternative to expansion anchors plugs and lag shields.

Concrete screws are not the answer to all fastening applications and will not work in all applications for numerous reasons. Concrete anchors in a vibratory load application may loosen or break up the concrete in the hole where it is placed. So as far as long lasting stability three tapcons per 8 foot length is probably still overkill. The tapcon concrete masonry screw anchors are uniquely engineered to provide easy installation and consistently high holding values in most masonry materials.

The patented advanced threadform technology which reduces head snapping provides 30 lower installation torque and 20 more holding power. Installation near the edge of concrete is possible because the tapcon concrete masonry screw anchors do not create an outward pressure from expansion. Once the friction is broken the anchor will gradually lose its holding values. The blue corrosion resistant coating enables them to withstand the harshest conditions.

Maximum performance is achieved because the tapcon anchor the condrive installation tool and the carbide tipped tapcon drill bits are designed to work as a system.
