Blue Concrete Screws for Fast, Reliable Masonry Fastening
Blue concrete screws are the industry standard for quickly anchoring into concrete, block, and brick. Their distinctive blue coating isn’t just for looks, it delivers corrosion resistance and makes them easy to identify on the job. Whether you're mounting electrical boxes, securing furring strips, or framing a basement wall, these screws provide a strong hold without the need for anchors or sleeves.
When to Use Blue Concrete Screws
These screws are ideal for:
- Attaching wood or metal to concrete or block walls
- Interior framing and furring installations
- Mounting fixtures, conduit, or junction boxes
- Temporary or permanent fastening to masonry surfaces
Their fast, anchor-free installation and consistent grip make them a favorite for contractors and DIYers alike.

How to Install Blue Concrete Screws
- Drill the pilot hole: Use a hammer drill and carbide-tipped bit. Refer to the screw diameter for the right pilot hole size.
- Clear the hole: Dust and debris reduce holding strength, use compressed air or a nylon brush to clean it out.
- Drive the screw: Use an impact or drill driver to seat the screw flush. Don’t overdrive or it may strip the hole or shear the fastener.
Most blue masonry screws are removable and reinstallable once, but best practice is single-use for critical applications.
FAQs About Blue Concrete Screws
Why are concrete screws blue?
The blue coating isn’t just branding, it’s a protective finish that resists corrosion and meets code for indoor and select outdoor applications.
Can I use these outdoors?
Blue screws are suitable for indoor and dry outdoor environments. For coastal or wet environments, consider stainless steel or specialized coatings.
Are these screws reusable?
They can be removed, but re-installation into the same hole often reduces holding power. For permanent or critical jobs, always use a new screw.
What’s the difference between hex head and flat head?
Hex heads are easier to drive and ideal for general use. Flat heads are great when you need the screw to sit flush, especially behind wallboard or trim.
