Chemical anchors have found widespread use in numerous projects. In the realm of high-rise buildings, they are commonly used to secure structural elements such as steel beams and precast concrete panels. In civil engineering, chemical anchors are employed to attach safety barriers and roadway signs to existing structures.

In addition to their size and thread design, drywall screws are also available in different materials and finishes to suit different applications. For example, zinc-plated screws are resistant to corrosion and are suitable for use in damp or humid environments, such as bathrooms or kitchens. Black phosphate-coated screws are often used for interior applications where appearance is not a concern.
