Stewart Fastener J4243 Toggle Bolts 1/4x4 Inch Jar of 25

Product Description

The STEWART FASTENER J4243 is a 1/4-inch by 4-inch toggle bolt sold in a jar of 25 pieces. Toggle bolts are spring-wing anchors used to fasten fixtures, brackets, and equipment to hollow walls or ceilings where a solid backing is not available. The spring-loaded wings expand behind the wall surface once inserted through a drilled hole, distributing the load across a wider area than a standard screw or anchor. These are a standard fastener for trade professionals securing electrical panels, conduit supports, ductwork hangers, and similar hardware to drywall or plaster assemblies.

Toggle bolts in the 1/4-inch by 4-inch size are suited for medium-duty anchoring tasks in residential and light commercial applications. Common use cases include mounting junction boxes, strut channel, pipe hangers, and equipment brackets to hollow interior walls and ceilings. The 4-inch bolt length accommodates thicker wall assemblies or installations where a fixture with significant depth must be secured before the bolt reaches the wall cavity.

Key Features

• 1/4-inch diameter by 4-inch length toggle bolt configuration
• Spring-wing design expands behind hollow wall or ceiling surface for secure anchorage
• Sold in a jar of 25 pieces for job-site convenience
• Suitable for hollow drywall, plaster, and similar cavity wall assemblies
• Standard 1/4-inch thread size compatible with common trade hardware and fixtures

Compatibility

Designed for use as a hollow-wall anchor in residential and light commercial construction where a solid substrate is not available for direct fastening.

Installation Notes

Toggle bolts are installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general contractors when mounting hardware to hollow walls or ceilings. Drill a clearance hole sized to allow the collapsed wings to pass through before inserting the bolt. Once the wings spring open behind the surface, tighten the bolt with a standard screwdriver or appropriate bit driver. Note that toggle bolts cannot be removed and reused once installed, as the wings will fall into the wall cavity when the bolt is backed out.
