Metallics JGA1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the difference between a ribbed plastic anchor and a self-drilling drywall anchor?
The JGA1 is a ribbed insert anchor: you drill a hole, tap the anchor in flush, then drive the screw, which expands the body and the ribs bite the hole wall. It works in drywall, plaster, block, brick, and concrete. A self-drilling threaded anchor drives straight into drywall with no pilot hole and is faster, but it only works in gypsum board and it will not go into masonry. For a job that mixes wall types, the ribbed anchor is the one that handles both.
2) What part number do I order for the Metallics gray ribbed plastic anchor?
Metallics JGA1 is the manufacturer part number, and it is a single configuration: 6-8 x 7/8, gray ribbed plastic, 100 to a jar. There are no length, color, or screw-size options to specify on it, so the model number alone is the whole order.
3) Are Metallics JGA1 anchors the gray ones an electrician uses for device boxes and straps?
That's the one. Gray ribbed plastic, 7/8 inch, sized for #6 and #8 screws, and it is stocked as electrical fastener hardware rather than a general hardware-aisle anchor. Property managers standardizing a maintenance kit across a building can buy the jar of 100 and cover most box, strap, and plate mounting in one part number.
