    Drive Rivet Anchors for Concrete

    Our strongest drive anchors are best for securing objects such as safety railings and warning signs. All have a rounded head that offers a finished look, won’t snag on objects, and is hard to grip, preventing unwanted removal. Often used for permanent installations, you can't remove your object without yanking the anchor out. These one-piece anchors compress when hammered in and expand inside a drilled hole, creating a powerful grip. No tightening is needed, making them quicker to install than wedge anchors.
    To install, hammer the anchor through your object into a drilled hole until the head is flush with the surface. The installation force stresses your base material, so avoid using the anchor near edges, corners, or in cracked surfaces.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—The most common choice for areas with occasional exposure to moisture.
    Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, these anchors won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

    Drive Rivet Anchors for Block and Brick

    Fasten signs, security cameras, and motion detectors. All of these anchors have a rivet head that creates a secure connection with a finished look. Easier to install than other types of anchors for block and brick, the anchors expand as you hammer in the pin or screw. Since the gripping force is distributed along the entire length of the anchor, it won’t crack soft materials. These anchors can be used in concrete near edges, corners, or other weak points, but they are not as strong as other drive rivet anchors for concrete.
    To install, insert the anchor through your component and into a drilled hole. Then, hammer the pin or screw until it's flush with the anchor's head, which expands the anchor body.

    Light Duty Anchors for Block and Brick

    These anchors grip the sides of your hole to resist twisting and pullout in block and brick. They’re an economical choice for mounting lightweight switches, security cameras, and clocks. All are the easiest anchors to install in block and brick but have the lowest strength.
    To install, drill a hole slightly deeper than the anchor is long. Next, insert the anchor until it's flush with the surface. Then, thread a tapping screw through your component into the anchor and tighten. Remove your component by unfastening the screw, but the anchor itself cannot be removed.
    Anchors with Screw
    Flanged Alligator—Best for installing in walls with hollow cavities, the flange keeps these anchors from being pushed through your hole. The anchors split in half inside the cavity for a secure hold. Projections on the anchors add gripping force to prevent twisting. Removing and reinstalling your screw will not lessen the strength.
    Lobed—As the anchors expand, lobes running down the entire length of the anchor firmly grip your hole to create the highest pull-out strengths of all our light duty anchors. However, removing and reinstalling the screw will weaken the strength.

    High-Strength Toggle Anchors for Drywall

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Anchors. High-Strength Toggle Anchors for Drywall.
    Our highest-strength drywall anchors are strong enough to secure pegboards, grab bars, and sinks. The toggle creates an extremely tight hold and won’t fall behind the wall when your screw is removed, so you can switch out components without losing strength. However, the anchor itself cannot be removed. Unlike traditional toggle bolt anchors, the toggle is pulled tight to the wall with the cap, which also covers the hole.
    To install, push the toggle through a drilled hole and pull the anchor back toward you until the toggle rests flush against the wall. Then, slide the cap along the straps up to the wall. Push straps side-to-side, snapping them off so they're level with the cap. Next, position your component over the hole, insert a machine screw, and tighten. The minimum screw length is the wall and component thicknesses plus 1/2".

    Thin enough to sit nearly flush in masonry and concrete without countersinking. These screws also have a wide head that spreads pressure evenly to help prevent thin materials from deforming. Also known as Heavy Duty Tapcons, they have hardened steel threads that cut deep into concrete for a strong hold. Create a pilot hole using a hammer drill or rotary hammer and a compatible bit. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

    Light Duty Drive Rivet Anchors for Concrete

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Anchors. Light Duty Drive Rivet Anchors for Concrete.
    More secure than masonry nails but not as strong as other anchors for concrete, these are often used to mount lightweight signs and control panels. Also known as tap-in rivets, they’re barbed to resist pullout after being hammered into a hole. All have a rounded head for a finished look that won’t snag on objects.
    To install, hammer the anchor through your component into a drilled hole that’s slightly longer than the anchor until the head is flush with the surface. The anchor will compress and then expand inside the hole. To remove, pry out the anchor.
    Nylon—Strong, durable, and economical. Best for dry environments, these anchors will swell and weaken when exposed to moisture.
