The Simpson Titen Turbo 1/4 in. x 1-1/4 in. Hex-Head Concrete and Masonry Screw Anchor is a fast, easy-to-install carbon steel screw anchor engineered for reliable fastening in concrete and masonry applications. At the heart of its performance is a revolutionary thread design featuring a Torque Reduction Channel that lowers driving torque while delivering superior holding power - making it a dependable choice for wood-to-concrete connections, structural anchoring, and general concrete fastening in dry interior environments. Like a standard concrete screw anchor, the Titen Turbo drives directly into a pre-drilled hole without a separate expansion anchor, but its advanced thread geometry sets it apart by actively managing drilling dust to keep installation smooth and consistent.

Key Features

• Torque Reduction Channel between the threads - traps drilling dust where it cannot obstruct thread action, dramatically reducing the likelihood of binding, stripping, or snapping during installation
• Code listed per ICC-ES AC193 for concrete without hole cleaning - eliminates the dust-removal step from pre-drilled holes, saving time on the job site while meeting recognized code requirements (IAPMO UES ER-712)
• Serrated screw point - enables easier starts when fastening through wood into concrete, reducing fumbling and misalignment at the beginning of each drive
• Compatible with standard ANSI drill bits - no matched-tolerance bit required, so installers can use tooling they already own without sourcing specialty accessories
• Zinc plated with a baked-on ceramic coating - provides a durable, corrosion-resistant finish suited for dry interior fastening applications
• Designed for use with a cordless drill or impact driver - works with common power tools already on the job site, keeping installation fast and straightforward
• 5/16 in. hex head drive type - pairs with a standard hex-head driver for secure, no-slip installation

Why This Product

• Faster installation with less frustration - the Torque Reduction Channel actively channels dust away from the threads, so the screw drives cleanly and consistently without the binding and snapping that can slow down concrete fastening work
• No hole cleaning required - code-listed approval under ICC-ES AC193 means crews can skip the blowing or brushing step after drilling, cutting steps out of the installation process without sacrificing performance or compliance
• Works with tools and bits you already have - standard ANSI drill bits and a common cordless drill or impact driver are all that is needed, so there is no additional investment in specialty tooling to get started
• Trusted Simpson engineering for concrete and masonry anchoring - the Titen Turbo is backed by Simpson Strong-Tie's thread design research and carries independent certification, giving contractors and builders a concrete screw anchor they can depend on across a range of fastening applications

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a special matched-tolerance drill bit to install the Titen Turbo TNT25114H?

No. A matched-tolerance bit is not required. The Titen Turbo is designed to install using a standard ANSI drill bit, simplifying setup and reducing the need for specialized tooling.

What is the Torque Reduction Channel and why does it matter?

The Torque Reduction Channel is a revolutionary design feature located between the threads of the screw anchor. It gives drilling dust a place to go during installation, significantly reducing torque-related issues such as binding, stripping, and snapping - resulting in consistently trouble-free installation.

Is the Titen Turbo TNT25114H approved for use without cleaning predrilled holes?

Yes. The Titen Turbo is code listed in accordance with ICC-ES AC193 for concrete applications without cleaning dust from predrilled holes, as certified under IAPMO UES ER-712. This saves time on the job site by eliminating the hole-cleaning step.

Can this screw anchor be used outdoors or in wet environments?

No. The Simpson Strong-Tie Titen Turbo TNT25114H is intended for use in dry interior environments only and is not rated for outdoor or high-moisture applications.
