The Simpson Strong-Tie Titen Turbo Flat Head Screw Anchor in 3/16 x 2-3/4 is a high-performance concrete and masonry fastener engineered for fast, reliable installation in wood-to-concrete and structural anchoring applications. Featuring a patented thread design and a proprietary Torque Reduction Channel, this white zinc plated and ceramic coated screw anchor drives smoothly into concrete or masonry while delivering superior holding power - making it a dependable choice for professionals who need consistent results without the common frustrations of binding, stripping, or snapping during installation.

Key Features

• 3/16 in. diameter x 2-3/4 in. length - a versatile screw anchor size well suited to a range of wood-to-concrete and masonry fastening applications where a low-profile flat head is required
• Flat Head with T25 6-Lobe Drive - the flat head sits flush with the surface for a clean finish, while the 6-lobe drive provides superior torque transfer and reduces cam-out during installation
• Torque Reduction Channel between threads - channels drilling dust away from the thread path, significantly reducing binding, stripping, and snapping so installation stays smooth from start to finish
• Zinc Plated with Ceramic Coating in White - the dual coating system provides corrosion resistance while the white color finish blends with painted or light-colored surfaces for a cleaner, more professional appearance
• Carbon Steel construction - delivers the structural strength and durability needed for demanding concrete and masonry anchoring tasks
• Requires 5/32 in. drill bit - a close-tolerance pilot hole maximizes thread engagement in the base material, contributing directly to holding power and pullout resistance
• Thread design lowers driving torque while maintaining holding power - installers experience less fatigue and fewer tool-related issues without sacrificing the fastening strength the application demands

Why This Product

• Engineered to eliminate the most common installation problems - the Torque Reduction Channel directly addresses binding, stripping, and snapping, which are the leading causes of failed or stalled installs with traditional concrete screw anchors
• Reliable holding power in concrete and masonry - the patented thread geometry cuts cleanly into the base material and maintains grip, making this anchor dependable for structural wood-to-concrete connections
• White ceramic coating suits finished and visible installations - where appearance matters alongside performance, the white color and smooth ceramic finish provide a result that looks intentional rather than industrial
• Trusted Simpson Strong-Tie engineering - the Titen Turbo is designed with a thread profile specifically developed to reduce torque demands on both the installer and the fastener, resulting in consistently trouble-free performance across installations

Frequently Asked Questions

What size drill bit is required for the 3/16 x 2-3/4 Titen Turbo screw anchor?

A 5/32 in. drill bit is required. Using the correct pilot hole diameter is important - a properly sized hole ensures maximum thread engagement in the concrete or masonry base material, which directly supports the anchor's holding power and pullout resistance.

What is the purpose of the Torque Reduction Channel on the Titen Turbo?

The Torque Reduction Channel is a design feature located between the threads of the screw anchor. It gives drilling dust a place to escape during installation, which significantly reduces the torque buildup that commonly causes binding, stripping, and snapping in concrete screw anchors. The result is a smoother, more consistent drive from start to finish.

What does the T25 6-Lobe drive type offer compared to a standard drive?

The T25 6-Lobe (Torx-style) drive provides greater contact area between the bit and the fastener head compared to Phillips or slotted drives. This means more torque can be transferred to the anchor without the bit slipping or camming out, which is especially valuable when driving into dense concrete or masonry materials.

Why does the Titen Turbo have both a zinc plating and a ceramic coating?

The zinc plating provides a base layer of corrosion resistance for the carbon steel fastener, while the ceramic coating adds an additional protective layer and contributes the white color finish. Together, they help protect the anchor in typical interior and covered applications while giving the fastener a clean appearance on light-colored or painted surfaces.
