What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these concrete screws for exceptional holding strength on masonry surfaces like brick, concrete, and block. Reviewers consistently highlight the Torx drive design that eliminates bit slippage during installation, making the process smoother with impact drivers. Many describe them as dependable for decades of use and heavy-duty applications. While some note the premium pricing and occasional breakage under excessive torque or improper substrate use, most customers consider the reliability and proven performance well worth the investment for serious masonry work.

Tapcons have a proven history of durability!

Would Recommend

I’ve never done a review about screw anchors before but the funny thing is that I have used tapcons for decades! I have a block home for over 40 years and always used tapcons to install timer boxes, hose reels and pipe fastening. They are always the brand I go to because they are super strong and dependable. Simply put- they work really well. My son is a general contractor and when I asked him what he thought of tapcons he replied “they’re the best. “ I needed to fasten an artwork to the front ...

Tap-Con screws 3/16" × 2 3/4"

Would Recommend

These screws work great to hold a 2 × 4 in place as a parking curb in my garage. They did require a 3/16" dia. × 1 1/2" deep hole drilled into the concrete, and a Torx T30 drive bit in my cordless impact device to secure the parking curb to the floor.

Cheap and they break

Would Not Recommend

Theses screws were very cheaply made. All of the ones I installed broke. Couldn’t return because I lost the receipt. Would give them a ‘no star’ rating, but not possible.

Good product gone bad

Would Not Recommend

Worst experience ever with Tapcon. Used these to screw into patio block. 3 of seven screws twisted off at the head. These were black screws. Never had any problems with the blue ones or has Tapcon gone cheap?
