Metallics J1521 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 3/8 inch spring wing toggle bolt work in hollow block or concrete?
No. A spring wing toggle like the J1521 needs open cavity behind the wall so the wings can snap out and bear on the back face. In solid concrete or grouted block there is nothing for the wings to open into, and you want a wedge or sleeve anchor instead. Use the toggle in drywall, hollow block cores, plaster, or hollow metal panels.
2) How many toggle bolts come in a jar of Metallics J1521?
Each jar holds 25 complete spring wing toggle bolts, screw and wing nut together. It ships as a jar pack, which is the usual way an electrician or MRO stockroom buys these for a service cart.
3) What size hole do I drill for a 3/8 inch toggle bolt?
A 3/8 inch spring wing toggle needs a hole large enough to pass the folded wings, not just the screw, which on this size is typically around 7/8 inch. Drill to pass the folded wing assembly, slip the toggle through, then pull back toward you while tightening so the wings seat flat against the back of the wall.
4) Can I remove the fixture later and reuse a Metallics J1521 toggle bolt?
The screw comes out, but the wing nut drops into the wall cavity and is gone. That is inherent to every spring wing toggle, including the J1521. If you expect to pull the equipment off repeatedly, a threaded anchor that stays captive in the wall is the better choice, and you buy the jar of 25 partly because the wings are consumable.
5) Does the J1521 need a slotted screwdriver or can I run it with a drill?
It is a round head slotted machine screw, so a flat tip driver is what fits. A slot does not hold a bit well under power, so snug it by hand on the last turns, which also helps you feel the wings pull flat against the back of the wall instead of spinning free.
