CON-SERT SCREWS™
Con-Sert Screws were designed to achieve higher pull-out values at
shallower embedments than competitive masonry screws.
The Con-Sert concrete screws replace plastic anchors and sheet
metal screws for lightweight anchoring. Con-Sert Screws eliminate
the need for two piece anchoring. The Con-Sert Screw will cut
threads in a pre-drilled hole in precast, concrete, block, poured
concrete, brick or any other masonry material.
Con-Sert screws are made of heat treated carbon steel with zinc
and yellow dichromate plating.

3/4" recommended embedment. Up to 1 1/4" embedment only in extremely soft masonry.
A safety factor of 4:1, or 25% of ultimate, should be used. Critical applications (vibratory
loads, overhead installations) may require a safety factor of as much as 10:1, or more.
Results were based upon drilling the pilot hole with a close tolerance DFS/USA consert drill
bit. To determine screw length needed, add 3/4" to the thickness of the material being
fastened.

WHY ONLY A 3/4" EMBEDMENT?
Con-Serts have a uniquely engineered thread
design and drill bit diameter which allows
maximum pullout at minimum embedment.
HOW DOES CON-SERT SAVE MONEY?
HERE'S HOW: In one (100 ct.) box of Con-Sert
Screws drilling at 3/4" embedment you would drill
a total of 6'3" of concrete. Other masonry screws
require a 1 1/4" minimum embedment...and the
same 100 screws would have you drilling 10'5" of
concrete! That's over 4' of extra drilling plus extra
time, extra money and extra bits. A 10 box job
would have you drilling over 40 feet of extra
concrete!

Drill hole with Con-Sert I Bit through object and into
concrete.
Use Con-Sert I Tool or (5/16" Hex Driver or #3 Phillips
Driver) to embed screws.
(REMEMBER: Thickness of object + 3/4" = length of screw) |
Drill hole with Con-Sert #8 Bit or 1/8" Masonry Bit through
object and into concrete.
Use Con-Sert #8 Tool or (1/4" Hex Driver or #2 Phillips
Driver) to set screw.
(REMEMBER: Thickness of object + 1/2" = length of screw) |
