Best Anchor Bolts
The Wej-It Ankr-TITE ATS wedge anchor with 304 stainless steel body provides a secure hold in solid masonry and uncracked concrete, meets Federal Specifications QQZ-325Z Type II Class 3 and GSA FFS-325 Group II Type 4 Class 1, and complies with Miami-Dade NOA #08-0911.02 code. The anchor body, washer, nut, and clip are made of 304 stainless steel for increased corrosion resistance compared to galvanized or zinc-plated steel anchors. It must be installed into a drilled hole with a diameter equal to that of the anchor to an embedment depth of 2-1/8" or greater. The washer lies flush against the mounting surface when the anchor is inserted into the hole, and the nut tightens with a wrench to draw the threaded portion of the anchor up, causing the clip to expand and secure the anchor in place. The clip has large dimples that provide traction to reduce slippage and increase hold in lightweight concrete. The dog point prevents damage during installation, and the safety shoulder above the clip provides support when the anchor is under severe strain. Specifications Ultimate Tensile Strength for Static Loads. Anchor Diameter. At Embedment Depth. 4,000-psi Concrete. 6,000-psi Concrete. 1/4". 1-1/4". 2,000 lb. Ultimate Shear Strength for Static Loads. Anchor Diameter. At Embedment Depth. 4,000-psi Concrete. 6,000-psi Concrete. 1/4". 1-1/4". 2,811 lb. Warning: Use one-fourth or less of listed maximum values for safe working loads (as required by local regulations). Anchors provide reinforcement to fasteners installed in materials that are considered brittle or have insufficient hold such as drywall, concrete, brick, and stone. Anchors provide support through methods such as expansion from within or behind the substrate, or insertion of adhesive compounds into drilled holes. Wej-It Fastening Systems manufactures mechanical and adhesive fasteners for use in concrete and drywall. The company, founded more than 60 years ago, is headquartered in Norwalk, CT.

Find Best Price at Amazon"These screws worked well if one uses the recommended (and included) 5/32 masonry drill for the cement board and a smaller size (I used 1/8) to drill pilot holes in the stucco."
"Even with a power drill on full speed and screwing them in, it took a lot for them to shear, and they hold my garage organizer rails as solidly as anything. Some reviewers have had success with the Bosch HCBG0205 Blue Granite Hammer Drill Bit Carbide Tip type available on Amazon, but those did not work well with me."
"Since they will sit on a shelf till the next hurricane down here when I will need screws I can trust, I'm probably going to return them, and maybe tell Amazon they are misleading people."
"These are incredibly well built and performing Masonry Screws that we used to secure a variety of substrates to brick."
"Using the included masonary bit I used all of them and didn't break a single one."
"Well made screws, they worked great!"
"Overall a fine anchor screw that I'm quite happy with."
"I purchased these to screw cement board to my subfloor so I could install a tile floor during my kitchen remodel."

Best Structural Bolts
Self tapping as 3-1/8 inch length for specially hardened steel screw. The GRK RSS series screws that are 3-1/8-Inch and longer have six CEE threads which enlarge the screw hole for the non-threaded portion of the fastener, allowing the wood to settle easily and increases the screw's drawing strength. The CEE thread also reduces the friction on the screw shank which can lower the driving torque and reduce splitting. The round head with built-in washer type head shield does not have any sharp edges like conventional lag screws. The RSS screws can be used as a lag screw alternative.

"These work great for structural framing."
"Expensive but quality is high."
"I wouldn't buy any other screw!"
"When I built the floating shelves I also noticed that the screws went into the wood easier than any other 3" screw I had used because of the unique design that GRK has used with this particular screw. Most of the time when I was driving in screws I could only use one hand and the screws went all the way in without much pressure being applied."
"This works so well that sometimes I use this first and replace it with a simple grk screw."
"I used these screws instead of 3/8" lag screws for a roof remodel and they made the job very easy."
