Value Collection MP38468 Concrete Masonry Screw 1/4 in Hex

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP38468 is a steel concrete masonry screw designed for anchoring fasteners directly into concrete, block, and masonry substrates without the need for an anchor insert. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter and 2-3/4 inches in overall length under head, this Tapper-style screw uses a hex drive for reliable torque transfer during installation. Each package contains 25 screws and includes a drill bit sized for the required pilot hole. This fastener is rated to ICC-ES ESR-2202 standards, making it appropriate for structural and code-compliant masonry anchoring applications in commercial and residential construction.

This screw is suited for use by general contractors, masonry tradespeople, and structural installers working with concrete, CMU block, grout-filled block, and similar hard substrates. Typical applications include anchoring framing, brackets, fixtures, and hardware to masonry walls, slabs, and foundations. The included drill bit ensures the correct pilot hole diameter is on hand for immediate use on the job site. The inch measurement system and standard 1/4 inch hex drive make this fastener compatible with common power tools found in most trade toolboxes.

Installation Notes

Concrete masonry screws are installed by general contractors and masonry tradespeople following applicable building codes, including IBC and local jurisdictional requirements. Before installation, drill the required pilot hole using the included bit and clear debris from the hole. Use a hex-drive power tool or hand driver set to the appropriate clutch setting to avoid overdriving or stripping the threads. Ensure the substrate material and embedment depth meet the load requirements specified in the ICC-ES ESR-2202 evaluation report for the intended application.
