Metallics PSA1J – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What screw sizes work with the Metallics PSA1J self-drilling wall anchors?
The Metallics PSA1J kit is the 6-8 size range, so it takes #6 and #8 sheet metal or anchor screws. That covers most device box ears, conduit straps and small bracket screws an electrician carries on the truck.
2) Can these self-drilling anchors be used in plaster or masonry, or drywall only?
Drywall and hollow wall only. The self-drilling point cuts its own hole in gypsum board as you turn it clockwise, which is why no pre-drilling is needed, but that same design will not bite into brick, block or concrete. For masonry you need a hammer-drilled sleeve or screw anchor instead.
3) Do I need a drill to install Metallics self-drilling wall anchors?
No pilot hole is required. Set the anchor on your mark, apply steady pressure and turn it clockwise until the head sits flush with the wall face, then drive your screw through the bracket into the anchor. A #2 Phillips driver does the job, and you can run them by hand where a drill will not fit.
4) Are the screws included with this Metallics anchor kit?
Plan on supplying your own screws. The PSA1J is a 100-piece jar of 6-8 self-drilling wall anchors; the mounting screw is described as a separate step in the install, driven through your hardware into the seated anchor.
5) What kind of electrical work are these Metallics wall anchors meant for?
Light to medium wall-mounted electrical hardware: outlet and switch box mounting in drywall, conduit straps and hangers, junction boxes, panel and control enclosures, plus thermostats and HVAC control panels. They are a finish and MRO fastener, not a structural anchor.
6) Will a self-drilling anchor hold in drywall if I hit a stud behind it?
It will not seat properly. A self-drilling wall anchor is made to cut through gypsum board and expand behind it; wood framing stops the point and you end up stripping the anchor or crushing the board face. When you find a stud, skip the anchor and drive a screw straight into the framing.
7) How many anchors come in the Metallics PSA1J kit and how are they packed?
100 pieces in a jar. The jar keeps them contained on a van shelf or gang box, which is the reason most electricians buy this size rather than small carded packs for a rough-in or a multi-unit service call.
8) Can I standardize on one anchor across a building for small electrical mounting work?
For hollow drywall, yes. A single jar of 100 6-8 Metallics self-drilling anchors covers box, strap and bracket mounting across a facility, which keeps one part number on the maintenance shelf. What it will not cover are masonry and CMU walls or anything needing a stud connection, so an MRO crew typically stocks this plus a masonry anchor alongside it.
