Tapcon® 1/4" x 5" Hex Washer Head Concrete Screws – 100 Count
The Tapcon® 1/4" x 5" Hex Washer Head Concrete Screw is engineered for tough, high‑demand masonry applications requiring deep anchoring strength, consistent performance, and long-term durability. As one of the longest Tapcon fasteners available, this screw is purpose-built for penetrating thick materials, multi‑layer assemblies, and structural components where reliability matters most.
Manufactured from high‑quality carbon steel and coated with the signature Blue Climaseal® corrosion‑resistant finish, these screws stand up to moisture, harsh environments, and demanding jobsite conditions. The hex washer head provides superb drive control, reducing slippage and minimizing the risk of head damage during installation. Thanks to its advanced thread design, each screw taps its own threads into concrete, brick, or block, creating a secure, vibration‑resistant hold ideal for both residential and commercial projects.
Whether you're installing headers, securing treated lumber, mounting electrical equipment, or completing interior or exterior framing tasks, this 5-inch Tapcon delivers outstanding holding power, reduced installation torque, and professional‑grade results.
