Metallics NT316100 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What screw size does the Metallics NT316100 strap toggle anchor take?
The NT316100 is a 3/16 inch strap toggle sized for a 10-24 machine screw. If the fixture you are hanging came with a sheet metal or wood screw, it won't thread into this anchor - you need a 10-24 machine screw of a length that clears your wall thickness plus the fixture.
2) How many anchors come in the Metallics NT316100 pack?
They ship 100 to a bag, so a single pack covers a full run of box, strap, or fixture mounting without reordering between units.
3) Is a strap toggle like the NT316100 the right anchor for hollow drywall, or should I use a plastic expansion anchor?
Strap toggles are the hollow-wall choice when the load matters. The plastic expansion anchors work by gripping the inside of the drilled hole and depend on board thickness; a toggle like the 3/16 inch NT316100 passes a metal toggle through the hole and spreads behind the wall, bearing on the back face instead. For a light nameplate or low-voltage plate the plastic anchor is fine. For conduit straps, boxes, and fixtures hung off drywall or hollow block with no stud behind, go with the toggle.
4) Can I remove the screw from a strap toggle later without losing the anchor behind the wall?
Yes, that is the point of the strap design. A strap toggle sets its metal channel flat against the back of the wall and holds it there, so backing the 10-24 screw out to swap a fixture leaves the anchor in place and ready to take the screw again. A standard spring-wing toggle bolt drops into the cavity the moment the screw comes out.
5) What is the Metallics part number for the 3/16 inch 10-24 strap toggle anchor in a 100 pack?
Order Metallics NT316100. That single part number covers the 3/16 inch (10-24) strap toggle anchor supplied 100 to a bag.
6) Are these strap toggles suitable for electrical rough-in work like mounting straps and boxes to hollow walls?
That is the intended use. Metallics catalogues the NT316100 as electrical fastening hardware, and the 3/16 inch 10-24 size is the common pick for conduit straps, device boxes, and small fixture brackets where there is no stud or solid backing to screw into.
