Value Collection C32878 Nylon Self Drilling Wall Anchor 250pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C32878 is a nylon self-drilling hollow wall anchor designed for fastening into wallboard and drywall without a pre-drilled pilot hole. The anchor drives directly into the wall surface, then expands behind the wallboard as the screw is tightened, creating a secure hold in hollow wall cavities. At 0.5 inches in diameter and 1.625 inches overall length, this anchor accommodates a number 6-8 screw and works in wall thicknesses from 0.375 inches up to 1 inch. Each package contains 250 anchors. Installation is typically handled by contractors, finish carpenters, electricians, or HVAC technicians securing brackets, fixtures, or equipment to drywall surfaces.

This anchor is suited for residential and light commercial applications where fasteners must be set into hollow gypsum wallboard without access to a stud. Typical uses include mounting junction box brackets, thermostat backplates, light fixture supports, pipe clips, and similar hardware to drywall surfaces. The self-drilling design eliminates the need for a separate drill bit for the pilot hole, speeding up installation in wallboard applications.
