L H Dottie FTG316 Flip Toggle Bolt Kit 3/16 Inch

Product Description

The L H Dottie FTG316 is a 3/16-inch flip toggle bolt kit packaged with the matching screws needed for a complete installation. Flip toggles are hollow-wall anchors designed to secure fixtures, brackets, and equipment to drywall, plaster, and similar cavity wall surfaces where a standard wood or masonry fastener cannot achieve adequate pullout resistance. The toggle wing collapses for insertion through a drilled hole, then springs open behind the wall to distribute load across a wider bearing surface. This kit is sold as a single unit and includes the toggle hardware and screws together.

Flip toggle kits in this size range are used across residential and light commercial construction and service work. Electricians mount conduit straps and low-voltage brackets with them. HVAC technicians use them to anchor thermostat bases, junction boxes, and small equipment supports to finished drywall. Plumbers and general contractors reach for them when surface-mounted fixtures need a reliable hold in hollow wall cavities. The 3/16-inch bolt size suits medium-duty fastening tasks where a smaller toggle would be insufficient.

Key Features

• 3/16-inch bolt diameter sized for medium-duty hollow-wall anchoring applications
• Flip-wing toggle design collapses for clean insertion and springs open behind the wall surface
• Kit includes both the toggle anchor and matching screws for a complete, ready-to-install package
• Suitable for drywall, plaster, and other hollow or cavity wall substrates
• Single unit (EA) packaging for straightforward procurement by the piece

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use hollow-wall anchor for standard 3/16-inch toggle bolt applications in residential and light commercial wall assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drilling a hole sized to the toggle wing, collapsing the wing, inserting the assembly through the hole, then tightening the screw to draw the wing flush against the back face of the wall. De-energize any circuits behind the work surface before drilling to avoid contact with wiring. Follow applicable NEC or local building code requirements when anchoring electrical or mechanical components to finished surfaces. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can crack drywall facing or deform the toggle bearing surface.
