Default hooks into concrete wall

Hello there

Sorry this is different post from the previous one (the solution was to use tension rod). Now this is different, I have concrete wall and I want to place some hooks in the wall. I have been watching many youtube videos. I do not have impact drill but normal drill. What is the best way to do mount hooks on the wall? I also watched a video that they use adhesive to mount a hook and it seems strong. I need mount some not to heavy stuff but heavy enough (like 1-5 lb). Please tell me if you have an experience with that.

This video for the adhesive

and this video, he use special nails

Thanks a lot indeed.

Go down to your local hardware store and tell them what you want
to do. They should show you concrete bits for your regular drill plus
the appropriate expansion screws.
Home Depot has these:

Consider using an anchor such as this: (available in different sizes)

A regular drill with proper size masonry bit, hammer, and wrench are
only tools needed.

Go to your local tool rental store and rent a hammer drill for an
hour. Drill the holes and use tapcons.

I would go to Harbor Fright and get a cheap hammer drill. If you are
really drilling concrete as much as your 2 posts indicate you will be
a lot happier. You can drill into block with a regular drill but
concrete is tougher.

Default bolts into concrete wall

What I understand is that a bolt needs to be fixed to the wooden board. Is it a bolt like this?
http://www.fixdex.com/index.php?m=co...catid=20&id=75
It is easy to install and has strong bearing capacity

.... from the link you posted ; " Functionality " :

" It is used for hanging and quick-removable structures, scaffolding.
It is designed to attach materials and equipment to concrete, natural
stone, full-bodied brick.
Installed in a pre-drilled hole, twisted manually, turning the head
clockwise. "

What's the question ?

A few small holes into concrete might be possible with a good
masonry bit or two or three and a regular drill -
- a hammer-drill is much better.
I would never trust adhesive.
I would not install any wood backing in a wet area.

A shot pin gun works pretty well and I have a RamSet you can use
manually but you need a big hammer. (Two pounds or more)
The trick is you need to set the pin in one hit.

That's what I did to anchor my new sill plate. $25 at Walmart, and the difference between that and trying to use a regular drill is night and day.

For these "once in a blue moon" users I would suggest getting a cheap
hammer drill from Harbor Fright. They have one for $23 and if you can
find a coupon it is probably more like $18-19.
