Concrete Screw Hex Flanged Fully Threaded Gimlet Point Ceramic White

·         Florida Standard. The gimlet point allows for superior penetrating into hard materials. Great for anchoring items to concrete, brick, block, wood or other masonry materials. White ceramic coating exceeds 500/hrs salt spray resistance

·         An externally threaded, hardened screw with a double lead, consisting of alternating raised and lowered threads with notches cut into the raised threads, and a gimlet-shaped, nail-type point. Cuts its own threads when used in concrete, block or brick. Eliminates the need for an anchor when used in light or medium-duty applications. When used in concrete, it can be removed and re-driven into the same hole. Special carbide bits are recommended for driving concrete screws into masonry.

·         Some applications include anchoring the following to masonry: hurricane shutters, electrical junction boxes, wooden beams, plywood, exterior insulation, metal flashing, thresholds. The Ruspert finish is a ceramic coating that also allows these fasteners to be used in pressure-treated lumber. Hole should be of a depth equal to the required embedment plus 1/2”

·         Check the Item Description to see if a drill is included as well.

·         Concrete screws should be installed a minimum of ten inch apart between each other. They have an advantage over most other types of masonry anchors in that they can be installed close to the edge of the material in which they are installed.
