Midwest Fasteners Ribbed Plastic Hollow Wall Anchor
Midwest Fasteners Ribbed Plastic Hollow Wall Anchors are molded plastic anchors built for mounting into drywall and other hollow wall surfaces where a screw alone won't hold securely. The ribbed body profile bites into the surrounding wall material as the screw is driven, resisting rotation and pull-out better than a smooth-shank anchor would in the same hole. This family is available for two screw-size ranges — #10 to #12 x 1-1/4" and #4 to #8 x 7/8" — so installers can match the anchor to the screw and the load being hung, making it a straightforward, low-cost solution for light- to medium-duty fastening tasks around the house, shop, or jobsite.
