Value Collection NFC5242 Steel Toggle Bolt Wall Anchor

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NFC5242 is a steel toggle bolt hollow wall anchor designed for securing fasteners in drywall, plaster, hollow tile, and wallboard. With a 0.25-inch diameter, 4-inch overall length (OAL), and a 0.25-inch slotted/Phillips drive screw, this anchor delivers a maximum load capacity of 830 pounds. The zinc finish provides corrosion resistance in typical interior applications. Licensed contractors and tradespeople use toggle bolt anchors when standard screw-into-stud mounting is not possible due to cavity walls or hollow-core substrates.

The NFC5242 is suited for light commercial and residential applications where a reliable hollow-wall fastening solution is needed. Compatible substrates include drywall, wallboard, plaster walls, hollow tile, and concrete or masonry surfaces. The toggle bolt design expands behind the wall cavity to distribute load, making it a common choice for HVAC register mounts, electrical enclosures, plumbing brackets, and similar trade installations in hollow-wall scenarios.

Key Features

• Maximum load capacity of 830 pounds for high-demand hollow-wall fastening
• Steel construction with zinc finish for durability and corrosion resistance
• Slotted/Phillips drive accepts both flat-head and Phillips screwdrivers
• 0.25-inch diameter by 4-inch OAL for deep hollow-wall clearance
• Suitable for use in drywall, plaster, hollow tile, wallboard, concrete, and masonry

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement toggle bolt anchor for hollow-wall and cavity-wall mounting applications across residential and light commercial construction and trade service work.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, or general contractors working in hollow-wall environments. Drill a clearance hole sized to allow the folded toggle wings to pass through before insertion. Ensure the wall substrate is appropriate for the rated load before applying full tension to the fastener. Always de-energize any adjacent electrical circuits and shut off relevant systems before drilling near utility runs.
