Metallics WAKJ14QD145 Anchor 1/4" Light Duty Red Wall Anchor Jar w/ 10 x 1-1/4 Quadrive 5/16 Hex Head Screw USA

It's a combination kit: 1/4 inch light duty red plastic wall anchors packed in a jar, supplied with matching #10 x 1-1/4 inch screws. The screws are hex head with a 5/16 inch hex and a Quadrive recess, so you can drive them with a 5/16 nut setter or a square/Phillips style bit. Anchor and screw ship together, so there is nothing else to source to hang the item.

They're rated light duty by the manufacturer, which is the right class for conduit straps, small junction box mounting, raceway, low-voltage plates, signage, and similar loads carried in shear against the wall. For a TV mount, heavy cabinet, or anything pulling straight out from the wall, step up to a toggle bolt or a sleeve anchor into solid substrate instead, or land the fastener on framing.

These are 1/4 inch anchors, so the pilot hole is drilled to 1/4 inch and the anchor is tapped flush before the #10 x 1-1/4 screw is driven in to expand it. In drywall use a standard twist bit; in masonry, block, or brick use a 1/4 inch masonry bit.

Yes. Metallics lists this 1/4 inch red wall anchor and screw jar as USA made, which matters on public and federally funded jobs that carry domestic sourcing language.

The #10 x 1-1/4 inch screw is sized to the 1/4 inch anchor body, not to the wall thickness, so it only has to seat fully in the anchor. That works in standard 1/2 and 5/8 inch drywall and in drilled masonry. If the item you're mounting is thick, say a spacer block or a thick strap stack, the 1-1/4 inch length may not leave enough thread in the anchor and you'll want a longer #10 screw.

The screws take a 5/16 inch hex driver, which is the same nut setter electricians already carry for sheet metal screws, so an impact or drill driver runs them straight from the chuck. The Quadrive recess in the head gives you a hand-tool backup if you need to snug one in a tight spot.

The anchors and screws come loose in a jar rather than a carded retail pack, which is how this is bought for truck stock and shop shelves. One container covers a lot of openings, and the wide-mouth jar means you can pull anchors and screws one-handed off a ladder.
