Metallics J1303 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What screw size do Metallics J1303 lead anchors take?
The J1303 lead anchor is sized for #6 to #8 wood screws and sheet metal screws, with an anchor length of 1-1/2 inches. Drive the screw into the anchor after it is seated in the hole and the lead expands against the masonry.
2) Can I use the J1303 lead anchors in concrete, brick, and block?
Yes. Lead expansion anchors like the J1303 are for solid masonry base material: concrete, brick, and solid block. They are not for hollow drywall or hollow-core block, where the lead has nothing to expand against. For gypsum board use a toggle or self-drilling drywall anchor instead.
3) How many anchors come in a jar of Metallics J1303?
One hundred lead anchors per jar. The jar pack is the standard way these ship, which suits an electrician stocking a van or a maintenance shop doing repeat masonry fastening rather than a one-off job.
4) Do I need a different anchor if I am using a #10 or 1/4 inch screw?
Yes. The J1303 is bored for #6 to #8 screws only. A larger screw will split or over-expand the lead sleeve and lose holding power. Step up to the next lead anchor size in the same Metallics range rated for the screw gauge you are driving.
5) What are these lead anchors used for on an electrical job?
They are the common fastener for mounting light-duty electrical work to masonry: strap and clamp for conduit runs, box mounting brackets, panel trim, and raceway supports. Metallics lists them under its electrical fastener line, and the #6-#8 screw size matches typical strap and device screws.
