Simpson Strong-Tie Titen Turbo Screw Anchor Masonry Drill Bit (3/16" x 4-1/2") is a carbide-tipped carbon steel drill bit engineered for accurate predrilling and clean installation of concrete and masonry screws. Designed to work seamlessly with the Titen Turbo installation tool as well as any standard three-jaw-style chuck drill, this bit gives installers the flexibility to work with their existing equipment while delivering the precision that concrete and masonry anchoring demands.

Key Features

• Carbide-tipped point - resists wear and maintains cutting performance when drilling into hard concrete and masonry surfaces, extending bit life compared to standard steel tips
• 3/16" diameter x 4-1/2" length - sized specifically for predrilling holes to the correct depth for compatible concrete and masonry screws, helping ensure proper anchor engagement
• Carbon steel construction - provides the structural rigidity needed to withstand the rotational stress and impact forces generated during masonry drilling
• Compatible with Titen Turbo installation tool and standard three-jaw-style chuck drills - works with dedicated installation tools or common workshop drills, reducing the need for specialized equipment
• Engineered for predrilling and screw-anchor installation - purpose-built to support the full Titen Turbo screw-anchor system workflow, helping achieve accurate, reliable fastening in concrete and masonry

Why This Product

• Designed specifically for the Titen Turbo screw-anchor system, this bit integrates directly into the predrilling and anchoring process - reducing setup time and ensuring hole dimensions match screw requirements
• The carbide tip holds its edge when cutting through concrete, block, and masonry, meaning fewer bit replacements and more consistent hole quality across a project
• Compatibility with standard three-jaw chuck drills means you are not locked into a single tool - use your existing drill or the dedicated Titen Turbo tool depending on the job at hand
• Available in multiple lengths (3-1/2 in., 4-1/2 in., and 5-1/2 in.), making it possible to match bit length to anchor depth requirements across a range of concrete and masonry anchoring applications

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of chuck is required to use this drill bit?

This bit is compatible with the Titen Turbo installation tool and also works with drills that have a standard, three-jaw-style chuck, giving you flexibility with your existing equipment.

What is this drill bit used for?

It is designed specifically to enable predrilling and installation of concrete and masonry screws as part of the Simpson Strong-Tie Titen Turbo screw-anchor system.

Why does this bit use a carbide tip instead of standard steel?

The carbide tip is harder and more wear-resistant than standard carbon steel alone, which helps the bit maintain its cutting edge when drilling into tough concrete and masonry surfaces - resulting in cleaner holes and longer bit life.

What lengths are available for these Titen Turbo drill bits?

These bits are available in 3-1/2 in., 4-1/2 in., and 5-1/2 in. lengths, allowing you to select the appropriate depth for your specific concrete or masonry anchoring application.
