Anchors, Bits, & Screws
Anchors, bits, and screws provide the essential connection between tools, materials, equipment, and mounting surfaces. RSP Supply offers professional fastening and drilling products for contractors, electricians, maintenance technicians, installers, fabricators, and industrial teams working with concrete, masonry, metal, wood, drywall, and other construction materials.
Browse concrete and masonry anchors, screw anchors, expansion anchors, hollow-wall anchors, self-drilling anchors, wood screws, concrete screws, sheet-metal screws, machine screws, and specialty fasteners. Drill-bit options may include twist bits, masonry bits, hammer-drill bits, SDS-Plus and SDS-Max bits, step bits, spade bits, hole saws, and impact-rated driver bits.
Choosing the correct combination is critical to reliable installation. Match the anchor or screw to the base material, load, environmental conditions, required embedment, and fixture thickness. Then confirm the required pilot-hole diameter, drill-bit type, shank, flute design, working length, and compatible drill or rotary hammer. Masonry bits are specifically designed for hard materials such as concrete, brick, and block, while different screw and anchor designs provide distinct installation methods and holding characteristics.
FAQs
Q: When should an anchor be used instead of a screw alone?
Anchors should be used when fastening into materials like drywall, masonry, or concrete where screws alone may not provide adequate holding strength.
Q: What types of anchors are commonly used?
Common anchors include plastic wall anchors, toggle bolts, and masonry anchors, each designed for specific materials and load requirements.
Q: What is the difference between twist bits and masonry bits?
Twist bits are used for drilling into wood, metal, and plastic, while masonry bits are designed with carbide tips for drilling into brick, concrete, and stone.
Q: What are self-tapping screws?
