Value Collection NFC6737 Steel Sleeve Drywall Anchor

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NFC6737 is a steel sleeve hollow wall anchor designed for fastening into drywall where there is no stud backing. The anchor measures 3/16 inches in diameter with an overall length of 2-1/8 inches and accepts a 3/8-inch screw. When driven, the steel sleeve collapses behind the drywall panel to create a secure mechanical grip. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for interior applications. Licensed contractors, finish carpenters, and general tradespeople commonly install these anchors when mounting fixtures, brackets, or hardware to hollow wall surfaces.

This anchor is rated for use in drywall panels ranging from 1-1/4 inches to 1-3/4 inches thick, covering standard single-layer and some double-layer gypsum board assemblies. It is suited for residential and light commercial interior walls. The slotted/Phillips drive type allows installation with a standard flat-blade or Phillips screwdriver without specialized tooling, making it practical for high-volume finish work or service calls.

Compatibility

Designed for use in drywall panels from 1-1/4 to 1-3/4 inches thick. Suitable for hollow wall fastening applications in standard interior gypsum board assemblies.

Installation Notes

Drill a pilot hole sized to match the anchor diameter before installation. Insert the anchor flush with the wall surface, then drive the screw to expand the sleeve against the back face of the drywall. Do not overtighten — collapsing the sleeve beyond its design range reduces holding capacity. This anchor is intended for interior drywall only and is not rated for masonry, tile, or exterior applications.
