Had a few break ending buying more than I needed because of this. Would probably try different anchors next time

Tried once.
I really enjoyed other "blue" concrete screws, but not all "blue" concrete screws are alike. Despite these say T25, the bit does not fit to many as the blue paint clogs the groves in the head and the bit can't be inserted. If you succeed inserting your bit, the screw will snap off even when the hole is pre-drilled. STAY AWAY.

    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.

    I count on Tapcon concrete anchors to joint a number of items to the world of concrete. Though I have broken them in the past, it takes a significant effort.

    Finally, star head Tapcons. They worked great, no stripped heads.

    The screws are great nut the kit didn't come with the bit to screw in the screws.

    Poor quality
    I appreciate the product but the quality of the material just isn’t there. Half of your screws will snap when installing in a concrete block. Maybe they would work better with a softer material like brick.
