How to use Concrete Screws?
Concrete screws, also known as masonry or tapcon screws, are fairly easy to install but should be done so correctly and safely, wearing eye and ear protection before drilling.
- Determine the appropriate hole size and screw length
- Using a hammer drill, start drilling the hole until you reach the desired depth.
- Clean the hole with a brush or hoover to remove all concrete dust to ensure proper fastening.
- Position the fixture over the hole, ensuring the hole in the fixture is large enough for the screw to pass through.
- Using a drill (or hand tools such as a spanner or wrench), insert the concrete screw into the fixture and then into the hole, allowing it to tap threads into the base material.
- Avoid turning the screw too fast, as it may strip the base material and cause the screw to spin in the hole.
