Answers:
a masonry bit and a hammer drill , and there is no such word as masonary, sorry just a pet peeve of mine...


yes, you need a masonry bit.
You will need a concrete bit first of all, usually you need a hammer drill to go along with that bit
Yes.
Tapcons are a brand of fasteners specifically made for concrete.
You need a masonry drill bit, which is often included in the package.
A hammer-drill will work best, but a regular drill will work.
you will need a masonary drill bit oh yeah & a drill!!!
Yes you will, you will need a masonry bit to drill the hole, and there are plugs similar to drywall anchors that fit into the hole and expand when you screw something into it, which holds it into place with friction.
you will need a hammer drill
All you will need is a 1/4 inch masonary drill bit and a regular drill. All hardware stores have them and the plastic anchor kits with screws. Simply drill the hole and tap the plastic insert in gently with a hammer. The plastic anchor expands as the screw goes in and will hold very well.
you need a hammer drill and hammer drill bit then some blue Tapcon fasteners.

the Bosch bull dog corded hammer drill would be best .
the cordless hammer drills do not do well.

e-bay will have many used hammer drills
go to ya local hardware store and ask for a masonary bit.Thats what you use to drill into concrete
