Midwest Fasteners Blue Plastic Conical Hollow Wall Anchor

Midwest Fasteners Blue Plastic Conical Hollow Wall Anchor

Midwest Fasteners Blue Plastic Conical Hollow Wall Anchors give contractors, maintenance techs and DIY installers a reliable way to secure screws into drywall, plaster and other hollow-wall surfaces where no stud or joist is available. Molded from durable blue plastic in a conical body, each anchor expands against the back side of the wallboard as the screw is driven, gripping the cavity to hold light to medium-duty fixtures in place. This family is available across four screw-size ranges — #6 to #8 x 3/4", #8 to #10 x 7/8", #10 to #12 x 1", and #14 to #16 x 1-1/2" — so installers can match the anchor to the screw gauge and wallboard thickness on hand. They are a straightforward, no-frills option for anyone who needs a dependable hollow-wall fastening point without drilling into studs.

Key Features

• Anchor Size Range: Available in #6 to #8 x 3/4", #8 to #10 x 7/8", #10 to #12 x 1", and #14 to #16 x 1-1/2" sizing to match a range of screw gauges and wallboard thicknesses.
• Type: Conical plastic anchor engineered for hollow wall applications such as drywall and plaster.
• Material: Molded plastic construction for lightweight handling and corrosion-free performance in interior wall installations.
