Description
Product Overview
Tapcon 28267 is a premium star‑drive concrete anchor designed to deliver consistent performance across a wide range of masonry applications. Constructed from high‑carbon steel, each screw is powder‑coated to provide a durable barrier against rust and environmental wear, ensuring a long service life even in demanding conditions. The bugle head profile offers a larger bearing surface, which distributes load more evenly and reduces the risk of material cracking during installation.
The 3/16‑inch diameter and 2‑3/4‑inch length strike an optimal balance between strength and versatility, allowing the anchor to penetrate deep enough into concrete, block, or brick to achieve a secure hold while still being manageable for hand tools. The tapered shank and star‑drive bit compatibility minimize torque loss and prevent cam‑out, giving users a smoother driving experience and more accurate placement.
Each package contains 25 individually packaged anchors, each stamped with the part number 28267 for easy identification and inventory control. The anchors are certified to meet AS standards, reflecting rigorous testing for shear strength, pull‑out resistance, and corrosion performance. This certification gives contractors and DIY enthusiasts confidence that the product will meet industry expectations for safety and reliability.
Beyond the core technical specifications, Tapcon has incorporated a proprietary blue coating known as Climaseal, which further enhances corrosion resistance, especially in environments exposed to moisture or chemicals. This coating also helps the anchor maintain its structural integrity over time, reducing the need for frequent replacements and lowering overall project costs.
Designed for compatibility with a broad range of star‑drive bits, the anchor can be installed using standard power drills or impact drivers equipped with the appropriate bit. This flexibility streamlines the installation process, allowing users to work efficiently without the need for specialized equipment. Whether you are fastening sill plates, securing electrical equipment, or installing fixtures, Tapcon 28267 provides a reliable solution that meets the demands of modern construction.

Usage
Tapcon 28267 anchors excel in both residential and commercial settings where a strong, permanent connection to masonry is required. They are ideal for securing sill plates in new construction, anchoring electrical conduit brackets, and attaching heavy fixtures such as shelving units or handrails to concrete walls. The anchors also perform well in retrofit projects, where existing structures need reinforcement without extensive demolition.
Because the anchors are compatible with block, brick, and wood, they offer a versatile solution for mixed‑material projects. For example, a contractor can use the same anchor to attach a wooden support beam to a concrete foundation, simplifying inventory and reducing the number of fastener types needed on site. The star‑drive design ensures that the screw remains engaged even when working with harder materials, minimizing the risk of stripping the recess.
In outdoor applications, the powder‑coated finish and Climaseal blue coating protect the anchor from rain, humidity, and occasional exposure to chemicals such as de‑icing salts. This makes the product suitable for anchoring outdoor lighting, signage, or structural components that must withstand the elements over many seasons.
For DIY homeowners, the 25‑piece box provides enough anchors for typical home improvement projects while still being compact enough to store in a toolbox. The clear labeling and consistent sizing make it easy to select the right anchor for each task, reducing the chance of errors and speeding up project completion.

FAQ
What type of drill bit should I use with these anchors?
Use a standard 3/16‑inch masonry drill bit to create the pilot hole, then finish the installation with a star‑drive bit that matches the anchor’s recess. This combination ensures proper embedment and maximizes holding power.
Can these anchors be used in outdoor environments?
Yes. The powder‑coated finish and Climaseal blue coating protect the anchor from moisture, UV exposure, and chemicals, making it suitable for exterior applications such as lighting fixtures, signage, and structural supports.
How many anchors are included in each package?
Each box contains 25 individually packaged Tapcon 28267 anchors, providing enough fasteners for most medium‑size projects while keeping inventory manageable.
Are these anchors compatible with wood studs?
While primarily designed for masonry, the bugle head and tapered shank allow the anchor to be used in wood when a strong, permanent connection to a concrete or block substrate is required. For pure wood applications, a wood‑specific screw may be more appropriate.
What warranty does Tapcon offer on this product?
Tapcon provides a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects. If you encounter any issues related to product quality, contact our support team for assistance and a replacement if warranted.
