The Tapcon® Installation Kit is designed to allow the same drill to be used for two operations of installing the Tapcon® screw:
Operation #1
Drilling a hole into the masonry base material is necessary. A hammer drill must be used and be set to the hammer and rotation mode.
The Tapcon® Installation Kit has an adaptor that fits into the chuck (one that uses a chuck key) of the hammer drill and holds the Tapcon® bit in place.
The Tapcon® bit is held in place by tightening a set screw tight against the flat part of the specifically designed shank of the Tapcon® bit
Operation #2
After drilling the hole, slide the sleeve part of the Tapcon® Installation Kit over the top of the bit, which will be held in place by compression.
Turn the hammer drill from the hammer and rotation mode to rotation only
Insert the correct driver on the end of the sleeve
The Tapcon® screw is ready to be driven
