    These 410 stainless steel screws are more corrosion resistant than ultra-corrosion-resistant coated steel screws. They're also known as Tapcons. All have a hex head for a secure grip with a wrench. Drive into a hole with a hammer drill or socket wrench, or use a specialized tool set (sold separately). Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

    These 410 stainless steel screws are more corrosion resistant than ultra-corrosion-resistant coated steel screws. They're also known as Tapcons. All are beveled under the head for a flush finish in countersunk holes. Drive into a hole with a hammer drill or socket wrench, or use a specialized tool set (sold separately). Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

    Also known as Tapcons, these screws are often used to anchor parts to concrete, block, and brick. Screws have a hex head that allows for a secure grip with a wrench. Drive them into a hole with a hammer drill or socket wrench, or use a specialized installation tool (sold separately). Made from corrosion-resistant-coated steel, they resist corrosion in wet environments. Length is measured from under the head.
