The Hillman 3/8 in. D x 1.7 in. L Round Zinc-Plated Steel Toggle Wing anchors are your go-to solution for solid, hidden mounting on hollow walls. Built for dependable performance, this 50-pack of toggle wing anchors combines durable zinc-plated steel with a precise round head design to deliver clean, secure installations in drywall, plaster, and other hollow-wall substrates.
Key advantages that set this apart
-
Smart load distribution behind the wall — the toggle wings deploy behind the drywall to spread load over a wide area, minimizing pull-out and keeping items secure up to 50 (max allowable load) per anchor when installed correctly.
-
Corrosion-resistant finish — zinc plating guards against rust and wear, making these anchors suitable for kitchens, baths, and other humid environments.
-
Compact yet capable dimensions — with a 3/8 in. diameter and 1.7 in. length, these anchors fit a variety of hollow-wall mounting needs while remaining unobtrusive behind the wall.
-
Ready-to-use boxed packaging — a boxed 50-pack that streamlines inventory for DIYers, tradespeople, and maintenance teams, ensuring you always have a spare on hand.
How to use
- Identify the appropriate hollow-wall mounting location and mark the drill point.
- Drill a hole of the size specified in the product data (1) at the mark.
- Insert the Hillman toggle wing anchor and align it with the wall. Drive in the screw to deploy the wings behind the surface.
- Hang your item and tighten securely. The wings will clamp against the back side of the wall for a reliable hold.
Ideal use cases
- Framed artwork and mirrors that need a clean, flush appearance without visible hardware.
- Light to medium-duty shelving or brackets on drywall and plaster walls.
- Hanging decorative items, storage hooks, and small fixtures where a secure hollow-wall anchor is preferred.
Why choose these over generic anchors
Unlike standard plastic anchors, the Hillman toggle wings anchor behind the wall to create a more durable, slip-resistant mount. The round zinc-plated steel design provides a robust, long-lasting solution for hollow-wall mounting, delivering steady support even in busy living spaces.
Who this is for
- Homeowners tackling DIY wall mounting projects in drywall or plaster.
- Renters needing reliable, non-permanent mounting options that don’t damage surfaces.
- Professional installers and maintenance crews who value a ready-to-use, bulk-pack solution for frequent tasks.
Practical notes
- Max load is dependent on wall material and screw size; follow installation guidelines for optimal results.
- Keep the boxed 50-pack organized to ensure you have quick access to anchors during multi-item projects.
