1. Standard Plastic Anchors These are typically used for lightweight applications, such as hanging pictures or small shelves. They work well in drywall and other soft materials.

Chemical anchor bolts are specialized fasteners that utilize a two-part adhesive system to bond with the concrete substrate. Unlike traditional mechanical anchors that rely purely on physical expansion or friction to secure themselves within the concrete, chemical anchors use a resin or adhesive, which is mixed with a hardener, to create a strong bond. This resin is typically injected into pre-drilled holes in the concrete before the anchor bolt is inserted. As the resin cures, it forms a very strong adhesive bond with both the bolt and the concrete, leading to excellent load-bearing capabilities.

Tek screws are specially designed screws that feature a drill point at their tip. This drill point allows the screw to create its own hole as it is driven into the material, which is especially beneficial when working with thick steel. Unlike regular screws that require a pre-drilled pilot hole, Tek screws simplify the fastening process, saving both time and labor costs.

Best Practices for Installation

1. Length and Diameter Measuring 60mm in length, these screws provide adequate penetration for various applications, ensuring secure connections even in thicker materials. Their diameters can vary, with common sizes being 10 or 12, catering to different project requirements.

A crucial aspect of drywall screws is their tensile strength and shear strength, which determine how well they can hold the weight of drywall panels without bending or snapping. Screws tagged with a specification such as 8% may indicate they have been tested to handle specific load requirements or meet certain building codes, showing they can perform reliably under stress.
