Metallics WAKJ16T – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size drill bit and screw do the Metallics WAKJ16T red plastic wall anchors take?
The WAKJ16T kit uses 3/16 inch red plastic wall anchors, so the hole is drilled with a 3/16 inch bit, and the kit is built around #8 screws. Drill clean and to full anchor depth; an oversized hole is the usual reason a plastic anchor spins instead of gripping.
2) Are these red plastic anchors suitable for hollow drywall, or do I need a toggle?
Ribbed plastic expansion anchors like the Metallics 3/16 red anchor are meant for solid base material, drywall, plaster, block, or masonry, where the anchor body can expand against the sides of the hole. For heavy loads in hollow drywall with nothing behind it, a toggle or self-drilling drywall anchor holds better. Use these for light-duty electrical work: box straps, conduit clips, cover plates, low-voltage brackets.
3) How many anchors come in the Metallics WAKJ16T jar?
It is sold as a jar of 200. That is a stocking quantity for a van or an MRO shelf rather than a single job pack, which is how most electricians and maintenance techs buy plastic wall anchors for mounting device boxes, straps, and light-duty plates.
4) Is the Metallics WAKJ16T a kit with screws included, or anchors only?
It ships as a wall anchor kit in the #8 size, so it is packaged as a combination rather than loose anchors alone. If you are matching an existing installation, the pairing to confirm is the 3/16 inch anchor with a #8 screw.
5) Can I order the Metallics red wall anchor kit by part number?
Yes. The manufacturer part number is WAKJ16T from Metallics, and that is the number to quote for the 3/16 inch red plastic anchor kit in the 200-count jar. There is a single configuration, so there is no size or finish option to specify on the order.
