How to Install Titen HD Concrete Anchors: A Step-by-Step Guide
Installing Titen HD Concrete Anchors is a straightforward process. Note that these instructions are general guidelines. Always be sure to consult the manufacturer's instructions for the specific anchor you are using to confirm you have the proper equipment and bit sizes. To install Titen HD screws, follow these four steps:
Step 1: Drill the Hole
Use a hammer drill with a carbide-tipped drill bit to drill a hole into the concrete surface. Before drilling, be sure to check the anchor's instructions to confirm you have the proper size drill bit that matches your anchor's diameter size and depth requirements.
Step 2: Thoroughly Clean the Drilled Hole
Clean the drilled hole using an air compressor. Be sure to clear out any debris or dust. This is very important for proper anchor engagement; if dust remains in the hole, the Titen HD screw will not properly fasten to the concrete.
Step 3: Insert the Titen HD Screw
Place the Flat Titen HD Concrete Anchor into the drilled hole.
Step 4: Drive the Screw Into the Concrete
Using an impact wrench and bit, drive the Titen HD Screw into the hole as you would with a standard screw. Tighten to the recommended torque.
