Value Collection NFC6747 Steel Sleeve Drywall Anchor

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NFC6747 is a steel sleeve-style hollow wall anchor designed for fastening into drywall without a stud behind the mounting point. The anchor body measures 0.25 inches in diameter with an overall length of 3.125 inches and accepts a 7/16-inch screw. The sleeve expands behind the drywall panel as the screw is driven, distributing load across the back face of the board. A zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for interior applications. This anchor is appropriate for electricians, plumbers, and general contractors who need a reliable fastening point in hollow drywall assemblies when structural backing is not available.

This anchor is rated for use in drywall panels ranging from 1.25 inches to 1.75 inches thick, covering standard single-layer and some double-layer drywall installations. It is suited for residential and light commercial interior work where a secure, low-profile mounting point is needed for brackets, fixtures, junction boxes, or similar hardware. Installation requires only a drill and the matching screw size.

Key Features

• Steel sleeve construction expands behind drywall for a secure grip in hollow-wall applications
• Zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in interior environments
• 0.25-inch anchor diameter fits standard pre-drilled or punched holes in drywall
• 3.125-inch overall length accommodates panels from 1.25 to 1.75 inches thick
• Accepts a 7/16-inch screw for a positive, flush-seated installation

Compatibility

Designed for use in hollow drywall wall assemblies with panel thickness between 1.25 inches and 1.75 inches. Intended for interior applications where a stud or solid backing is not available at the mounting location.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drilling a hole sized to match the anchor diameter, inserting the anchor flush with the wall surface, then driving the screw to expand the sleeve against the back of the drywall panel. Do not overtighten the screw, as over-driving will collapse the sleeve and reduce holding strength. This anchor is for interior, hollow-wall drywall only and is not rated for masonry, concrete, or exterior applications. Verify the mounting location is clear of wiring, plumbing, and other concealed utilities before drilling.
