Metallics J1207 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size lag screw do the Metallics J1207 shield anchors take?
The Metallics J1207 lag shield is a 1/4 inch x 1-1/2 inch anchor, so it takes a 1/4 inch lag screw. The 1-1/2 inch figure is the shield length, which is also your minimum hole depth in the masonry. Pick a lag long enough to pass through your bracket or strap and still engage most of the 1-1/2 inch shield.
2) Will lag shields hold in hollow block, or do I need concrete?
Lag shields are expansion anchors meant for solid masonry, concrete, and similar substrates, as the J1207 is described for. They expand against the walls of the drilled hole, so they need solid material around the full 1-1/2 inch depth. In the hollow cell of a block wall there is nothing to expand against, and a toggle or hollow-wall anchor is the right choice there. Mortar joints should also be avoided; drill the face shell of solid block or poured concrete instead.
3) How many anchors come in a jar of Metallics J1207?
50 anchors per jar. It ships as a jar pack, which keeps them dry and contained on the truck or shelf instead of loose in a bag, and 50 is enough to run a wall of conduit straps or a batch of box mounts without reordering mid-job.
4) Are these anchors OK for a damp or exterior masonry wall?
The J1207 carries a zinc-aluminum finish for corrosion resistance, which is what you want on a parking garage ceiling, a block exterior wall, or an unconditioned mechanical room. It is a coating on carbon steel, not stainless, so for constant wetting or chemical exposure a stainless anchor is the better call.
5) Can I use a 1/4 inch lag shield to mount electrical boxes and conduit straps to concrete?
Yes, that is the main use for the 1/4 inch x 1-1/2 inch Metallics lag shield: securing electrical boxes and panels, conduit supports, and equipment brackets to masonry. It is a medium-duty anchor, so for heavy suspended equipment or anything with dynamic load, step up to a larger diameter or a wedge anchor.
6) Do lag shields come with the lag screws?
No. The J1207 jar contains 50 shields only. You supply the 1/4 inch lag screws separately, and the length you need depends on the thickness of the strap, bracket, or box ear you are fastening through plus engagement into the 1-1/2 inch shield.
7) What is the difference between a lag shield and a plastic anchor for conduit work?
A lag shield is a metal expansion sleeve: you drill the masonry, drop the shield in, and the lag screw spreads it against the hole walls. Plastic anchors deform instead of expanding metal-to-masonry, and they lose grip under heat, vibration, and repeated loading. For overhead conduit straps, strut, and box mounting in concrete, the metal shield like the J1207 is the one contractors specify. Plastic is fine for light interior trim in drywall or block.
8) What part number do I order for the Metallics 1/4 inch lag shield?
Order Metallics J1207. That designation covers the 1/4 inch x 1-1/2 inch zinc-aluminum lag screw shield in the 50-count jar.
