Q:what size tapcon screw is used to mount a 2x4 sill plate on top of a cinder block
by|Jun 22, 2024
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.

          Junk
          Wish I'd read some of the reviews before purchasing, but you'd think that a fastener MEANT to be screwed into a hole in concrete would be up to the task. Drilled hole per instructions. Used an Allen wrench to screw the fastener into the hole. About 3/4 of the way in - SNAP. Not even using a power tool and... SNAP. Now I have 3/4 of the fastener stuck in the hole and cannot get it out so as to try another one of these junk fasteners or something else of higher quality. Profoundly disappointed.

            These fasteners are absolute garbage.
            I bought the install kit to go with these but I’ll be returning both. 3/5 snapped halfway in. Complete waste.

                Secured- Air Drain System
                I needed drill bits and screws to be secured to pavers drilling through a plastic air drain system for my artificial lawn turf project, SL Synthetic Lawn Turf. To note: I secured over 200 screws using no more than two bits from this product. It worked out very well. Buy this brand for your project. Job successful

                Great for tv mount
                Very strong screws. Used them to mount motion tv mount to wall. Very strong and could hold my weight.

                was looking for an easier alternative from Concrete anchors (such as Red Head, etc). These screws work pretty well for the most part, as long as you can get at least 3/4" of the screw into the concrete (must use a carbide tip drill bit first via a hammer drill). Use the same hammer drill to attach the screw. Secured 2x4's and 1x4's to an old concrete stoop with a bit of effort. The hammer drill is a must.

                  I have used these over the years and the only failure I have ever had is with poor quality concrete blocks. Often, I have used an anchor cement such as liquid nails to fill the holes and ribs of the Tapcon anchors. It really gives it an extra layer of protection from pulling out.
