Concrete screw
A stainless or carbon steel screw for fastening wood, metal, or other materials into concrete or masonry. Concrete screws are commonly blue in color, with or without corrosion coating.[19] They may either have a Phillips flat head or a slotted hex washer head. Heads sizes range from and lengths from .

The concrete screw was patented by Vincent Yotti of Melbourne Beach, Florida in 1975,[20] and was presented as a sheet metal screw or lag bolt used to anchor articles to concrete or related material. The concrete screw would be an inexpensive screw of quick application and of greater holding strength than prior concrete anchoring devices such as conventional sheet metal screws.

In the United States, concrete screws are commonly called Tapcons which refers to the brand name created from the definition of "an anchor that taps its own threads into concrete." Other commercial names for the fastener are masonry screw, confast screw, blue screw, self-tapping screw, and Titen.
