I would def try to go shorter and don’t go as deep with the pre drill. You just want enough to start the hole and then for the tapcon to grab into the concrete.



The hole needs to be longer than the tapcon (longer than the portion going into the concrete), shorter and you will break it off.

What it going to bite into? Might work going one size down on the bit but in my experience it needs something to bite into.
