Minerallac 59510J – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much weight will a Minerallac #8 self-drilling drywall anchor hold?
Holding capacity depends on the board thickness it goes into: 40 lbs in 3/8 inch drywall, 50 lbs in 1/2 inch, and 75 lbs in 5/8 inch gypsum wallboard. So the same anchor nearly doubles in capacity between thin residential board and 5/8 inch commercial board. Minerallac also states these are not for life safety or overhead applications, so do not use them to hang anything from a ceiling.
2) Are screws included with the Minerallac 59510J drywall anchor jar?
Screws are not included. The anchor takes #6, #7, or #8 sheet metal screws up to 1-1/4 inch long, which you supply separately. Order the screws at the same time or the anchors are useless on the job.
3) Will a self-drilling drywall anchor work in plaster, lath, or a solid masonry wall?
No. This is a hollow wall anchor sized for gypsum wallboard at 3/8, 1/2, or 5/8 inch thickness. In concrete, block, or brick you need a masonry anchor instead, and over wood lath or hard plaster the self-drilling point will not cut cleanly. Where you hit a stud, skip the anchor and drive the screw straight into the framing.
4) Do I need to pre-drill the wall before installing these Minerallac #8 anchors?
No pre-drilling. The #8 self-drilling anchor cuts its own hole in gypsum board and goes in with a Phillips screwdriver, so it is a one-tool install with no bit changes on a ladder.
5) How thick a fixture can I mount with these self-drilling drywall anchors?
Maximum fixture thickness is 3/4 inch. Anything thicker than that and the 1-1/4 inch screw will not have enough thread left in the anchor body, which is 1/2 x 1-5/8 inches overall. For thicker brackets or plates, step up to a longer-throw hollow wall anchor such as a toggle.
6) Can these Minerallac anchors be taken back out and reused if I reposition a fixture?
They are removable, so you can back the screw out and pull the anchor if a fixture needs to shift, which matters on retail display and office changeovers. Expect to patch the hole, since the anchor cut its own opening in the board.
7) Are zinc plated drywall anchors OK for a damp area like a utility room?
The anchor body is zinc, plated for corrosion resistance, which covers normal interior service including utility and back-of-house rooms. It is still an interior gypsum board fastener, not an exterior or wet-location anchor.
8) Is the Minerallac 59510J anchor made in the USA, and how many come in the jar?
Made in the United States, supplied as a 100 pack jar under model 59510J. That pack size suits a property maintenance crew stocking a truck or an electrical contractor mounting device plates and light fixtures across a building.
