VERTICAL
Important Installation Procedures
Sammy Super Screw® (vertical mount) have been
tested for straight pullout. Sidewinders™ (horizontal mount) have been tested
for shear. Installing any of the units and then deflecting the receiver head
more than 15 degrees could result in weakening of the unit or separation (see
chart for deflection guide).
Any deflecting beyond 15 degrees nullifies the warranty.
Each unit must be installed with the appropriate nut driver. Our nut
drivers (#14 and, #14SW), have a built-in automatic release mechanism
to prevent over-tightening. If other tools are used for installation, the
warranty is void.
Important Vertical Installation Notes
Warranty requires the use of appropriate nut
drivers for installation. Use the specifications below. |

Vertical Installation for Concrete |
|
CST |
- Self tapping into concrete
- Use a 1200 maximum RPM drill for installation
|
- Using SDS 250, carbide tip bit, or
a HEX RECEIVER with a #250 carbide tip bit, pre-drill the
concrete member to a depth of 2"
with an electric impact/drill set on impact mode (Figs 5 & 6).
- After pre-drilling has been completed, with the bit
still in the drill, install the SLEEVE TOOL over the bit, and insert the
appropriate nut driver (see Vertical
Installation Notes) into the opposite end (Fig 7).
- Insert the concrete screw into the nut driver (Fig 8).
Now you are ready to install the screw into the concrete member.
- Place tip of screw into the pre-drilled hole, turn
impact/drill unit to drill mode and begin insertion (Fig 9). When the nut
driver spins free on the screw, installation is complete. Stop and remove
the drill.
The concrete screw is ready to receive
¼", ⅜",
½", or metric all thread
rod or bolt stock (Fig 10). |

Note: Do not install concrete screws while the drill
unit is in impact mode — doing so will destroy the pullout factor of the
screw. |

Vertical Installation for Toggle |
|
SST |
- For use in sheetrock ceilings, metal lath & plaster,
metal liners, thin wood, ceiling panels, etc.
- The SST is a light duty fastener and should be used
with consideration.
|
- Pre-drill a ⅝"
hole with a regular drill bit or hole saw.
- Insert appropriate nut driver (Model #14 for SST) into light duty drill or screw gun.
- With wing nut and washer on bolt, insert wing nut
through surface and begin installation. When the nut driver spins free on
the screw, stop and remove the drill.
The screw is now ready to receive
¼",
⅜" or
metric all thread rod or bolt stock. |
