Screws were good. Drill bit would not even make one hole. Purchased two bits but same results.

    Literally good for three holes
    Not sure how this is supposed to work. Good for three holes. It appears this is a regular drill bit marked up and disguised as a masonry bit. Don't bother unless you want to buy like ten of them.

      More expensive than other bits but they do seem to last much longer.

      This drill bit dulls easily. It is not for multiple holes. It would last longer if it was used in a hammer drill.

      He there- You are correct, Tapcon drill bit should be used with a Hammer Drill. Please feel free to call us at (800)222-6990 or email us at CS@itwbrands.com if you have any further installation questions.

      I was able to drill into cinder block without much effort. The drill hole was perfect for the associated masonry screws to attach fixture to wall surface.
