Simpson 3/16 x 1-1/4 Hex Titen Turbo Screw Anchor from Simpson is a high-performance concrete screw anchor engineered for fast, reliable wood-to-concrete and wood-to-masonry anchoring applications. The Titen Turbo features a patented reverse thread design that cuts directly into concrete or masonry as you drive it, eliminating the need for a separate anchor sleeve and delivering strong holding power with less installation torque. With a zinc plated and ceramic coated carbon steel construction, this hex head screw anchor is built to perform in demanding structural fastening tasks where both speed and strength matter.

Key Features

• Patented reverse thread design - cuts into concrete or masonry during installation, reducing driving torque so installers can work faster with less fatigue
• Zinc plated with ceramic coating - provides corrosion resistance to extend service life in concrete and masonry environments
• 3/16 in. diameter x 1-1/4 in. length - a compact profile suited for shallow-embedment anchoring tasks where space and clearance are limited
• 1/4 in. hex drive head - compatible with standard hex drivers and impact tools, enabling fast installation without special tooling
• Requires a 5/32 in. drill bit - a slightly undersized pilot hole ensures a tight fit in concrete or masonry for superior holding power
• Carbon steel material - delivers the structural strength needed for wood-to-concrete anchoring under load
• Standard blue color coding - makes it easy to identify the correct anchor size on a busy job site

Why This Product

• The reverse thread design means the anchor threads tap directly into concrete or masonry as it is driven, eliminating extra steps and getting the job done faster than traditional sleeve anchors or wedge anchors
• The 1/4 in. hex drive format works with common hex drivers and impact wrenches, so no specialty installation tools are required - ideal for contractors who need efficiency without added equipment costs
• The zinc plated with ceramic coating finish adds a layer of corrosion protection specifically suited to the alkaline environment of concrete and masonry, helping the anchor maintain holding strength over time
• The compact 3/16 x 1-1/4 in. size fills the gap for shallow-embedment applications where larger anchors would crack thin concrete sections or simply do not fit - giving you a reliable solution in tight conditions

Frequently Asked Questions

What size drill bit is required to install this Titen Turbo anchor?

A 5/32 in. drill bit is required. This slightly undersized pilot hole ensures the 3/16 in. anchor threads engage tightly with the concrete or masonry substrate, providing superior holding power once driven.

What type of driver is compatible with this anchor?

This anchor uses a 1/4 in. hex drive, so it works with any standard 1/4 in. hex driver bit or impact driver. A 1/4 in. wrench is also compatible for manual installation.

What applications is the Titen Turbo concrete screw anchor designed for?

The Titen Turbo is designed for wood-to-concrete and wood-to-masonry anchoring applications. The self-threading design cuts directly into concrete or masonry, making it a practical choice for sill plate attachment, furring strips, and similar structural connections.

How does the ceramic coating benefit the anchor's performance?

The zinc plated and ceramic coated finish provides corrosion resistance that helps protect the carbon steel anchor body in the alkaline environment common to concrete and masonry installations, supporting long-term holding strength and service life.
