Metallics WAK18T – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Metallics WAK18T come with the plastic wall anchors, or just the screws?
Screws only. The WAK18T is the screw component of the 3/16 inch yellow plastic wall anchor kit, so you get the #6 x 1 inch pan head screws and no anchors in the pack. If you need the anchors as well, order the complete kit rather than this screw-only item.
2) Why would I buy screws separately instead of a whole new anchor kit?
Because screws are what run out first. Crews doing repetitive drywall mounting, device plates or low voltage brackets usually have anchors left over after the screws are gone, and a lost or stripped #6 x 1 inch screw makes the anchor in the wall useless. Buying the screw-only pack restocks the short half of the kit without paying for anchors you already have.
3) Are these WAK18T wall anchor screws plated for corrosion resistance?
They are steel with a zinc plating, which is a mild indoor-grade finish. Fine for drywall boxes, device plates, conduit straps and bracket work inside a building; for wet or exterior locations choose a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener instead.
4) Is the Metallics WAK18T made in the USA?
Yes, the WAK18T screw is identified as US made steel with US zinc plating. That matters on public work and institutional jobs carrying domestic-content requirements, where a fastener line has to be documented like anything else on the submittal.
5) What is the WAK18T screw normally used for on an electrical job?
Light hollow-wall mounting. A #6 x 1 inch pan head in a 3/16 inch plastic anchor is the standard way electricians hang device plates, low voltage brackets, small raceway and strap runs, thermostats and data plates on drywall where there is no stud behind the mark. It is not a structural fastener and should not be used for anything carrying real load or vibration.
