What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these concrete screws for reliable, strong performance in masonry applications. Reviewers consistently report they hold firmly in concrete, brick, and cinderblock for mounting cameras, speakers, lamps, and vents, eliminating the need for toggle bolts. Many highlight quick, straightforward installation—the screws tap directly into masonry without separate anchors. Some note the included drill bit wears out quickly or arrives dull, recommending a higher-quality bit. A few report issues with improper installation or unsuitable substrates causing failure. Overall, most customers find them dependable and worthwhile for permanent masonry installations.

Love these things

Would Recommend

Tapcons make fastening almost anything to masonry construction quick and easy while being a very strong anchor type. They also are easy to remove for maintenance or remodeling.

Usually work well

Would Recommend

I have had mixed luck with Tapcons. They usually work well, though it seems the smaller sizes work best. Follow directions carefully, being sure to drill to recommended depth. Do not expect to be able to crank these down real tight, as they will pull out and you'll be left with a worthless hole in your project.

Easy to use but...

These anchors are great but one has to be careful with an impact driver because it can shear off the head.

Would Recommend

Concrete anchors were used to install a fasttrack storage/hanging system in my garage. Anchors holes were easy to drill and anchors holding fasttrack system very well.

Great product

Would Recommend

I bought this for a couple small anchors around the house, turned out to last a lot longer than I expected. I still use it and the tool shows no signs of giving up anytime soon.

Good screws, bad drill bits

Would Not Recommend

I liked the screws, but the bits wore out VERY fast going into a concrete slab. I bought an extra "just in case" and burnt through both within a few holes.
