Metallics WAKJ13 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What kind of wall will the Metallics 3/16 inch red plastic anchor kit hold in?
These are hollow wall anchors, meant for drywall and similar hollow wall construction. You drill a pilot hole, push the red plastic anchor in flush with the wall face, then drive a screw into it so the anchor expands behind the board. They're not a solid masonry sleeve anchor and they're not a toggle, so if you're hanging into block or concrete, or you need heavy pull-out in drywall, look at a different anchor type.
2) Are screws included with the Metallics red plastic wall anchor kit?
The kit is six anchors. The install sequence calls for inserting an appropriate screw through your mounting hardware and into the seated anchor, so plan on supplying the screws to suit whatever you're hanging.
3) How many anchors come in the Metallics WAKJ13 kit?
Six pieces per kit, all 3/16 inch red plastic anchors. That's a small count, so for a build-out where you're setting dozens of brackets or box supports you'll want to order multiples rather than a single kit. The model number to order against is WAKJ13.
4) What size hole do I drill for a 3/16 inch plastic wall anchor?
Drill the pilot to match the 3/16 inch anchor body so the anchor seats snug and sits flush with the wall face. Oversizing the hole is the usual reason a plastic anchor spins instead of expanding. The 3/16 inch call-out is the anchor diameter, not the screw size.
5) Can I use these plastic anchors to mount an electrical box or conduit support in a drywall partition?
That's one of the named uses: mounting electrical boxes, conduit supports and junction box assemblies in hollow wall construction. Metallics catalogs the kit as electrical supplies. Keep in mind it's a light-duty expansion anchor in board, so support weight and any code-required backing still drive the method on a commercial job.
6) Will plastic anchors rust in a damp interior wall?
No. The anchor body is molded plastic, so there's nothing to corrode, which is why these get used in interior spots that see occasional moisture. The screw you pair with it is the part that determines corrosion behavior, so pick the screw finish for the environment.
7) Are these Metallics anchors good for thermostat and bracket mounting on a remodel?
Yes, that's squarely what they're for. Listed uses include thermostat mounting, ductwork supports, pipe supports and fixture brackets, shelf brackets and cabinet hardware in drywall. Anything light, hung on board, with no stud behind it.
8) Why are these wall anchors red?
The red is size color coding. Anchor bins on a truck or in a shop run several diameters that look alike once they're loose, and the color lets an installer or inspector pick the 3/16 inch out at a glance rather than gauging it.
