DeWALT Anchors and Fasteners Screw-Bolt+ Hex Washer Head 1/2" x 5" is a one-piece, heavy-duty screw anchor engineered for reliable fastening into concrete and masonry substrates. Featuring a finished hex washer head with ratchet teeth on the underside, this anchor delivers secure, keyed engagement in normal-weight concrete, sand-lightweight concrete, concrete over steel deck, concrete masonry, and solid clay brick. The bright zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for a wide range of interior and structural applications, making this anchor a go-to choice for professionals who demand both performance and installation efficiency.

Key Features

• Patented thread design offers low installation torque - reduces physical effort and wear on tools during installation, improving jobsite productivity
• Designed for standard ANSI tolerance drill bits - no special tooling required, so you can use drill bits already on hand without additional investment
• Tough threads for tapping high-strength concrete - threads cut directly into the base material during installation, creating a keyed mechanical engagement for dependable holding power
• Ratchet teeth on the underside of the hex washer head lock against the fixture - prevents loosening under vibration or load, maintaining a secure connection once installed
• Fully removable one-piece design - simplifies adjustments, repositioning, or disassembly without damaging the base material
• Bright zinc-plated finish - provides a corrosion-resistant surface suitable for a variety of indoor structural and concrete fastening applications
• Steel threads tap into the hole during installation to allow for reduced edge and spacing distances - gives installers greater flexibility when working near slab edges or in tight layouts

Why This Product

• Versatile base material compatibility - approved for use in normal-weight concrete, sand-lightweight concrete, concrete over steel deck, concrete masonry, and solid clay brick, covering the most common structural substrates in commercial and residential construction
• No special drill bits needed - the patented thread geometry is engineered specifically for standard ANSI drill bits, eliminating the need to source proprietary tooling and keeping installation straightforward
• Reduced edge and spacing distances - the keyed thread engagement allows anchors to be placed closer to slab edges and adjacent anchors than many conventional fasteners permit, giving installers more layout flexibility
• Simple installation and full removability - the one-piece construction installs quickly with a standard 3/4" socket and can be fully removed if plans change, reducing waste and rework costs

Frequently Asked Questions

What drill bit size is required for installing this screw anchor?

This anchor is designed for use with standard ANSI tolerance drill bits in a 1/2 in. diameter, so no proprietary or specialty bits are required. Using a standard ANSI-compliant 1/2 in. bit ensures the patented threads engage the base material correctly for optimal holding performance.

Can this anchor be removed after installation?

Yes. The DeWALT Screw-Bolt+ is fully removable after installation. This makes it a practical choice for applications where adjustments, repositioning, or future disassembly may be needed, without causing significant damage to the surrounding base material.

What socket size is needed to drive this hex washer head anchor?

The finished hex washer head on this 1/2 in. anchor requires a 3/4 in. socket for installation. The ratchet teeth on the underside of the head lock against the fixture surface once the anchor is fully driven, helping prevent loosening over time.

Is this anchor suitable for use in lightweight concrete or masonry - not just standard concrete?

Yes. According to the product data, approved base materials include normal-weight concrete, sand-lightweight concrete, concrete over steel deck, concrete masonry, and solid clay brick - giving this anchor broad versatility across common construction substrates.
