Ratings & Reviews for Project Source 500-lb 3/8-in x 2-in Sleeve Anchors 4-Pack

anchora good/bit garbage

Wasnt expecting too much from this drill bit but i figired i give it a whirl. The anchors are excellent and do what they intended to do. The bit is absolute junk. I got one hole drilled and it was done. I tried to sharpen it and that did just about nothing.

Anchor review

I liked that package come with the necessary drill bit. And the screw for the anchor pulls up the locking piece without the screw coming out and having to be cut off. I didn't like that the like anchors where not available, thus having to purchase different anchors for the other 8 holes. Also, the drill bit dulls quickly when drill hard substrate such a granit.

Wasted money

These anchors would not hold. Out of 4, only one securely attached to the floor. I suggest you look for the type with the nut on top.

junk low quality anchors that do not install easily and not heavy duty to hold anything

Concrete Anchors were great. Concrete Bit fabulous

The concrete anchors were great. I had used a new DeWalt Hammer Drill I also purchased at Lowes with 2 other concrete bits. I thought something was wrong. Expensive bits couldn't cut into the concrete. This included concrete bit cut into the concrete within minutes and finished the job. Best buy of the year

BYO Drill Bit

Bring Your Own drill bit. The drill bit didn't make a hole large enough to use in my concrete garage floor. Trying to lightly tap the anchor into the hole would bend the anchor sleeve so that it only went in about half way. Then I had to pry it out, drill the hole again with a wallowing action, and use a new anchor to complete installation. This occurred twice. And the drill bit wouldn't even drill a 3rd hole. It was done. So it took 4 anchors to get 2 installed properly.

Drill too short/wrong size

What a waste. Drill bit isn’t long enough for 3-1/2 anchor. Have a vacuum ready to suck out all the dust. Anchor “might” fit after removing dust, but just holding the drill next to anchor- not. long. enough. Purchased online and picked up, or I may have noticed length of bit. Anyway, do not buy without actually looking at them.

Drill bit to short

Drill bit to short to make hole long enough for bolt to seat fully.

fits just right

Since these bolt down instead or having a stud stud stick up makes it easier to finish the job. Used on hand rails to my lower level. They secured the rail nice and tight. Having the masonry drill bit included makes short work of drilling the proper size hole

JUNK , WASTE OF MY TIME.

I like shopping at Lowes and don't put this problem on them. First off drill bit is too small. starting the problem of setting into drilled hole. I got the hole big enough by working bit around. when tightening up bolt it striped(soft bolts). so long story short get the red head drop in anchors, grade 8 bolts. Had to move tire changer and re drill holes with better drill bit. Lesson learned. cost me money and an hour of my time.

Bit sucks

Drill bit absolutley sucks. Bought 2 packs, burned up 2 bits in 3 anchors.

Finally found a solution

While there seems to be all kinds of options for heavy-duty brick wall attachments, most weren't right for my application upon closer inspection for a variety of reasons. While I didn't really need the bit (much less one in both packs), having a new bit probably worked better than my old one. The anchors seem perfectly snuck and (so far?!) very secure. Watch out for the minimum depth requirement (once including whatever you are holding to the wall... in my case a thick stanchion). Min. Depth...

Garbage

These anchors are very thin and the bolts must be grade 2. The bolt actually bent when driving the anchor with a regular claw hammer, and when I tried to unscrew it the head ripped off the bolt.

Anchor would not go in after drilling the hole...

Despite drilling the hole with the provided bit, the anchor did not go in as planned. Not sure why but perhaps the concrete nipped away part of the edges of the bit by drilling the hole. This happened twice. Now my project is at a standstill. Not good.
