| Installation
Guidelines using Condrive 1000, Condrive 500 STEP 1 : Place correct drill bit into driver adapter and drill
hole 1/4'' deeper than depth of embedment.
STEP 2 : Slide Condrive installation
Tool sleeve over drill bit. Snap hex head or Phillips Socket in place.
STEP 3 : Insert anchor in socket,
position fixture to be fastened, begin to drive Tapcon into Pre-drilled hole.
STEP 4 : The anchor is fully set when
the nose piece of Condrive Tool automatically disengages from the socket and fixture
is secured in place. |
Note: Indicated pull-out and shear failure
values were obtained in tests witnessed by Pittsburgh Testing Laboratory personnel.
Designated holding power depends on the quality of the masonry material, depth of
embedment and proper hole size. These figures are offered only u as a guide and are not
guaranteed in any way by Illinois Tool Works Inc. The figures indicate average ultimate
pull-out and shear failure values. A safety factor of 4:1 or 25% of ultimate pull out
value is generally accepted as a safe working load. However, reference should always
be made to applicable codes for the specific safe working ratio. All values are based on
close tolerance holes drilled with Buildex Tapcon®
carbide drill bits. Performance of the Tapocon anchor may vary in extremely hard concrete
aggregates. Consult your Buildex representative for further information.
As in the case with all applications, Buildex can only
suggest typical fasteners for typical applications and that the connection design's in the
sole responsibility of the Building Design Engineer, Architect or otherwise responsible
person charged with the design of the connection. For further product information, please
contact the nearest Authorized Buildex Distributor or the Buildex Technical Service
Department at 1-800-323-0720.
