Metallics J1541 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size toggle bolt is the Metallics J1541?
The J1541 is a spring wing toggle bolt with a 5/16 inch diameter bolt, 18 threads per inch, and an overall bolt length of 4 inches. That thread pitch (5/16-18) is the standard coarse thread for that diameter, so it mates with common 5/16-18 nuts and couplings.
2) Can I use a 5/16 spring wing toggle bolt to hang electrical boxes or strut on hollow block and drywall?
That is what a spring wing toggle is for. The wings fold flat to pass through a drilled hole, then spring open behind the wall or ceiling and spread the load across the back face of hollow drywall, plaster, hollow block, or hollow metal. The J1541 is catalogued by Metallics as an electrical fastener, which is the typical use: box supports, strut, conduit hangers, and light fixtures on hollow substrates. For solid concrete you want a wedge or sleeve anchor instead, not a toggle.
3) How many toggle bolts come in a jar of Metallics J1541?
Each jar holds 25 of the 5/16 inch spring wing toggle bolts. Metallics ships this item in jar pack, so you are buying by the jar rather than per piece.
4) Do I need to drill an oversized hole for a 5/16 inch spring wing toggle?
Yes, the hole has to clear the folded wings, not just the 5/16 inch bolt, so it is noticeably larger than the bolt diameter. Drill to the wing size, push the wings through until you feel them snap open, then pull back on the bolt head while you tighten so the wings seat flat against the back of the wall. One consequence worth knowing: if you back the bolt all the way out, the wings drop inside the cavity and are not recoverable, which is part of why these come 25 to a jar.
