What are you guys using to attach a flag pole mount to a brick wall? I used the Tapcon screws before and a strong storm pulled the whole mount right out of the wall.

Looking to see what else can be used that might be a little stronger to keep it in place as I don’t have any wood on the front of the house to drill in to.

you can use dry wall anchors if they're good ones but I'm surprised about the tapcon screws coming out.

Did you drill into the mortor or brick?



These will work for sure. I have these holding my TV:

masonry anchors (lowes)

Bigger tap cons with the proper drill bit or lead anchors

I used masonry anchors but drilled into the brick, not into the mortar! I usually take the flagpole inside if I know strong storms are on the way!

Red head anchors with epoxy then bolt it in.
