Quality at its best, these anchors stand up to the test. They do not break extremely easy at all, in fact I have not had one break yet, pre-drill for best success. With the proper depth drilled these anchors helped support the foundation and did not slip or spin out

I always trust Tapcons for attaching anything to brick or cement. These are the perfect size for attaching signs to brick. Just use a 5/32" masonry drill bit to ensure the Tapcon can get a bite in the brick and make sure your drill bit hole in the brick plus the thickness of the item your attaching so that the hole is deeper than the length of the Tapcon so the Tapcon doesn't bottom out in the brick or cement. Tapcon is top quality and easy to use, I would recommend it to anyone, and I was paid for this review.

Most of them snapped
Absolute garbage. I drilled the holes extra deep and cleaned them out. 4/5 of the screws snapped anyway. I'm surprised I could even get to that point because the hex heads are too shallow and soft to get a good grip. What should have been an easy project turned into an all day hassle of extracting broken screws from brick. Another company that has cashed in on their reputation and are now selling cheap junk.

Hi there, thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We are sorry to hear that your experience with our product did not match your expectations. For best results, please use our three step process: pre-drill a hole using the recommended Tapcon Carbide-tipped drill bit, clean out the hole, and then drive your anchors in. Please feel free to call us at (800)222-6990 or email us at tapcon@itwbrands.com, if you have any questions.
    Great screw for concrete. You didn't need an anchor, just a tapcon screw. Insert by drilling a hole with a slightly smaller drill bit. The package tells you which drill bit to use. I used them to hang curtains from my concrete ceiling.

    The heads were to rounded to catch in socket head. Very strange or just very cheaply made.

    Hex washer head label. A picture would have helped I had a Phillips head screwdriver and the tapcon had a flat opening. We had to find a hex screw driver to fit.
