Hillman Fasteners 5024 Toggle Bolt 1/8x3 in Mushroom Head 2pk

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 5024 is a snap-in toggle bolt designed for securing loads to hollow walls and ceilings. The mushroom head profile provides a wide bearing surface that distributes load across drywall or plaster, reducing the risk of pull-through. At 1/8 inch diameter and 3 inches in length, this fastener suits medium-duty anchoring tasks common in residential and light commercial construction. Electricians, plumbers, and HVAC techs reach for toggle bolts when attaching conduit straps, hangers, pipe supports, or light fixtures to hollow wall cavities where stud attachment is not possible.

This fastener is packaged in a 2-count pack and is suited for hollow drywall, plaster, and similar wall materials. The snap-in wing mechanism allows the toggle to be inserted through a pre-drilled hole and spring open on the far side of the wall cavity, creating a secure anchor point. Typical applications include mounting junction boxes, attaching pipe hangers, securing HVAC duct supports, and general trade fastening tasks where backing is unavailable.

Key Features

• Snap-in toggle design deploys automatically once inserted through the wall opening

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose toggle bolt fastener for hollow wall and ceiling installations in drywall, plaster, and similar thin-panel construction materials.

Installation Notes

Installation requires drilling a clearance hole sized to allow the folded toggle wings to pass through cleanly. Ensure power is disconnected to any nearby electrical circuits before drilling into walls or ceilings. A drill, screwdriver, and appropriate bit set are the typical tools required. Follow applicable building codes, including NEC guidelines when installing near electrical systems, and do not exceed the fastener manufacturer load rating for the wall material type.
