Self Drilling Drywall Anchor

Everyone loves self-drilling drywall anchors - you don't need a drill to install them and they go in quickly and easily. The SnapSkru® anchors are the only ones, however, that lock symmetrically on to the wall or ceiling for a truly secure fastening! Every time you tug on a toilet tissue holder or a disabled handrail or a window blind, other self-drilling anchors come out as quickly as they went in, because nothing prevents their sharp threads from cutting back through the drywall as the anchor is locked in the wall.

When activated with a screw (and you can use any diameter from 3.5 - 4.5), the SnapSkru® opens with an audible "pop", locking the anchor on the wall. The drywall gypsum and its paper are kept in compression and thereby immediately reinforced, providing much greater holding power than the other self-drilling anchors that are just a small screw in a large screw. And the SnapSkru® anchor's built-in positive stop resists over-drilling! Try it for yourself!

• Holds over 80% more than others
• Locks on wall - resists vibration and shock
• Activates with audible 'pop' indicates correct installation
• No drill or special tool needed
• Works with 3.5mm, 4.0mm & 4.5mm diameter screws

SnapSkru® Mini version available.

Heavy Duty Toggle Bolt

The Snaptoggle® anchor arguably has to be the best toggle anchor available on the market today; with simplicity and speed of use, massive range of applications and huge 'pull out' and 'shear' loads - tested - this fixing is like having another pair of hands behind the wall. It is the ultimate answer to some of the most awkward and demanding tasks that face the tradesman in fixing to drywall, plasterboard, plaster, composite panels, acoustic ceilings, fibreglass, cement board, green board, steel sheet, hollow block...the list goes on! Whether the material being fixed into is 10.0mm or 240mm thick, or any other size between there is a fixing in this range that can cope with the situation.

• Massive time saver - vastly quicker and easier to install than other anchors
• Exceptionally strong - upto twice as strong as old fashioned wing toggles
• Corrosion resistant - new gold plating is 7x better than previous plating
• Money saver - turn a 2 person job in to a 1 man operation

Hollow Wall Anchor

The new, improved Toggler plastic Hollow Wall Anchor, provides secure holding power for light and medium loads in all walls. Designed for optimum holding in hollow walls, such as drywall and gypsum board, the anchor locks on walls and ceilings in its grip range for vibration proof holding. The anchor also holds securely and functions as a wedge anchor when it encounters a wall thicker than its grip range...It functions as an expansion anchor in solid walls and in wooden studs.

• Improved, patented design strengthens anchor significantly
• Works in both hollow and solid materials
• Locks onto wall, forming a rigid weight distributing truss for optimal holding, vibration and shock proof
• Versatile, use any size screw from 3.5mm to 6.0mm

Hollow Wall Hook Anchor

Similar to the standard Hollow Wall Anchor but has an in-built hook which is ideal for hanging pictures, canvases, mirrors, etc. It is also great for telephone wires, household electrical cabling, and TV cables.

The TH® hook anchor, when used with a screw in hollow walls, holds three times more than traditional picture hooks. The weight of the item is taken on the screw, close to the wall, to prevent pull-out. Rust-proof for hanging fixtures in high moisture areas. Works in hollow, thick, and solid walls.

All Purpose Wall Anchor

Although Alligator® plugs may look like ordinary plastic plugs, they function very differently to hold more weight than most concrete and masonry anchors made out of metal. Thanks to the Alligator® plugs unique, patented design, they can even hold more than most chemical, epoxy, and adhesive anchors.

In unexpected cavities (like hollow brick or hollow block) and in hollow walls (like tile over drywall or in drywall itself), the screw opens the Alligator® plug and locks its thread into the anchor's teeth to resist pull-out and vibration. In a solid substrate like brick, concrete or even lightweight block the Alligator® plug extrudes itself (rather than expands) along the length of the screw which gives even holding pressure along the length of the fixing rather than just at the point of expansion like in most other 'plug' type fixings.

This makes the Alligator® Plug the solution to your fastening problems.

• Out holds most metal, adhesive, epoxy and chemical anchors of same size
• Resists vibration and shock in both solid and cavity walls
• Accepts a wide range of screw sizes
• Bonds screw to concrete and masonry, sealing the hole
