Q:The package indicates a qty of 75, which would lead one to believe you are buying a pack of 75 screws. However, you apparently count the bit and drill bit in the quantity. Why not indicate the correct qty of screws?

1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: Hi There- It's better to use 1/4" instead of a 3/16" diameter for block as it has more aggressive threads and holding value. Make sure that you do not break through the other side of the hollow block and embedment must be 1" minimum. Please feel free to call us at (800)222-6990 or email us at tapcon@itwbrands.com, if you have any questions.
