FAQ’s

What does "Tapcon" mean?

The Tapcon name is derived from its ability to "tap" threads into "con"crete.

How do I install a Tapcon anchor?

First, drill a hole using a hammer-drill or rotary hammer in the hammer mode. Second, switch your drill out of hammer mode and position the Tapcon anchor into a nut driver or onto a Phillips bit. Then drive the anchor into the pre-drilled hole until it is fully seated. For more information, click here. 

How much holding power does a Tapcon anchor provide?

Tapcon anchor performance depends on the diameter of the screw, embedment depth and compressive strength of the concrete. Click here for specific performance data.

How do Tapcon anchors differ from other types of concrete anchors?

Expansion anchors, such as wedge and sleeve anchors provide holding power by expanding into the hole, which creates pressure on the hole walls. Tapcon anchors cut threads into the hole walls, eliminating pressure on the hole walls. This allows Tapcon anchors to be installed close to an edge and at reduced spacing.

In addition, unlike expansion anchors, Tapcon anchors are removable allowing for greater flexibility on the job.

What if I need to remove and/or move my application in the future?

Tapcon anchors are reversible, allowing future removal of any application.

What is Climaseal coating?

It is a long-term corrosion resistant coating that covers the entire fastener surface.

What material is Tapcon+ manufactured from?

Tapcon+ is manufactured from heat-treated carbon steel for increased hardness and ductility.

Are Tapcon+ anchors building code-approved?

Tapcon+ meets some of the most stringent building code standards and is approved for cracked concrete and seismic applications.

Where are Tapcon+ anchors manufactured?

All genuine Tapcon anchors are engineered and manufactured in the United States.

What are Tapcon+ screw anchors?

Tapcon+ anchors are heavy-duty masonry screws designed with Advanced Threadform Technology, which cuts threads into all masonry materials including concrete, block and brick.

Tapcon+ can be used in place of expansion anchors, like wedge and sleeve, with better holding power and faster installation.

Can Tapcon+ anchors replace other types of anchors?

Yes, Tapcon+ anchors can be used in place of traditional mechanical expansion anchors such as wedge anchors and sleeve anchors.
