Questions about this product
- What are these anchors made for?
- They grip in hollow walls and ceilings like drywall and plasterboard. The metal tube collapses and spreads behind the panel for a wide hold. Use them for TVs, speakers, curtain rods, and light fixtures on hollow surfaces.
- What size hole do I drill for each one?
- Drill to match the size: M4 needs 6mm, M5 needs 7mm, M6 needs 8mm, and M8 needs 10mm. Insert the anchor, then tighten the screw to expand it behind the wall. Panels should be at least 10mm thick.
- Why pick metal over plastic hollow wall anchors?
- Metal holds more weight and lasts longer than plastic versions. The serrated surface bites the inner wall so the anchor resists spinning and pull-out under load. That makes them a better fit for heavier or moving fixtures.
