Metallics LCS14178 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size concrete screw is the Metallics LCS14178, and how deep a hole does it need?
The LCS14178 is a 1/4 inch diameter concrete screw with a 1-7/8 inch overall length and a hex washer head. With a 1-7/8 inch screw you need to drill deeper than your embedment so the dust has somewhere to go: subtract the thickness of the fixture you are fastening from 1-7/8 inches to get your embedment into the concrete. Standard practice with 1/4 inch large diameter concrete screws is a 3/16 inch carbide bit.
2) Can I use the Metallics LCS14178 concrete screw outdoors or in a damp location?
The LCS14178 is steel with a zinc plating, which is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry interior work: strut, conduit clamps, panel and box mounting indoors. For permanent exterior exposure, wet locations, or treated lumber in contact with the anchor, step up to a stainless or coated exterior-rated concrete screw instead.
3) Does the LCS14178 need an expansion plug or shield in the hole?
No plug, sleeve or shield. It is a concrete screw, so it cuts its own thread straight into the drilled hole in concrete and is driven with a hex driver on the washer head. That also means it can be backed out and the fixture relocated, which a wedge or sleeve anchor will not let you do.
4) How many Metallics LCS14178 anchors come in a jar?
Each jar holds 100 of the 1/4 x 1-7/8 inch hex head concrete screws. The jar pack suits a service van or a shop crib where you are pulling a handful at a time rather than buying a bulk box per job.
5) What is the Metallics part number to reorder these 1/4 inch hex head concrete screws?
Order by Metallics LCS14178. That number covers the 1/4 x 1-7/8 inch zinc plated steel hex head large diameter concrete screw in the 100 piece jar.
