Premium Quality Self-Drilling Drywall Zinc Anchors with Screws Kit

I purchased these because I was fed up with the plastic flimsy ones that come with a lot of products and Always seemed to break. These have been a game changer for me for hanging things on my walls. They are simple to use and come with anchors and screws. I have had to switch out the included screws a few times for ones with smaller heads to use and they all seem to work fine with the anchors. I have hung several large heavy shelves and they are holding great. Highly recommend.

These are not quite as wide as some (more expensive) anchors I have used, but the low price convinced me to give them a try. Installation is easy, but if you haven't used this type of anchor before, you might want to check out some YouTube videos to perfect your technique. I needed 4 or 5 anchors, but bought this big box due to the price. I am now set for a few years, probably. Bottom line - these work, each supports up to 50 pounds, and they are very easy and fast to install.

As long as the wall is hollow where you plan to install these at they will hold up really well. I used mine to install new towel bars and automated soap dispenser in my bathroom. They are doing a good job at both locations. No signs of pulling out or loosening up. Easy to install limited mess to clean afterward.

These anchors work great in Sheetrock/dry wall I have used these many times at my work and at home.I really thought this was a good purchase for me until I received them. I saw the 40 pieces which to me was a good price. I thought I was getting 40 anchors, had I been a little more attentive I would have seen that it was a kit which had the anchors and the proper size screws, 20 of each. The price would have been great for 40 anchors, not so great for the kit. I have plenty of screws I was looking for a deal on anchors.Back to the product. Like I have mentioned I have used these for many years. There is another brand that has a much heavier drill tip, it is also metal, but I did not like them as well. Then there is the plastic type which to me were junk.Just a precaution to new users. These should be used for things you intend to keep in place of awhile, because when you go to move the item these anchors leave a good size hole, about a half inch which means patching.

I had to order these on the fly; someone who lived here before me decided to use weenie plastic anchors, not real drywall ones, to hold up a heavy curtain rod in the dining room. I was hosting a dinner party, and noticed that it wasn’t level; a closer look demonstrated that the screws were flopping around in big holes in the drywall. The screws and anchors used were really ridiculous; they didn’t have the right threads, were too long for the anchors, and basically drove the anchors through the drywall, leaving a big hole.I was hoping these would plug the existing holes, but they were too big in diameter, so I had to give up on those, but these installed beautifully into a normal sized screw hole, 3/8 inch diam. For a new hole, I drilled using a 7/16 bit to make a pilot hole, and then screwed the anchors in easily, with good fixation. I think you could just tap them in to start, but I didn’t want to risk it wandering. It didn’t have instructions for what size hole or whether they could be installed directly, but a bit of common sense took care of it.

What can I say? Even a girl can use these! Don't wait on hubby ladies, it's something YOU can actually do yourself! I just positioned my shelf and using a small simple level, pencil dotted the painted drywall spot to be "drilled". Fair warning though, get it right and double check before you actually bore the hole because it will leave a significant area to be patched. I reckoned beforehand this would likely be a permanent attachment. All you need is a hefty phillips head screwdriver and apply pressure as you screw the fat anchor straightly into the wall by hand, then you follow through by taking the narrower screw and twisting it into the anchor. I did need some torque the last few turns to get the screw where I wanted it in the anchor. Have fun! I have already hung 2 quilt racks and a shelf in the kitchen and they aren't going anywhere. Time for some bathroom shelves and more decor! Don't wait for a fella to help hang stuff, now you can DO-IT-YOURSELF with confidence!

I never use the built in spade bit - thats for folks who dont have good tools and have to take shortcuts.The device is made of zinc - a relatively soft metal. Drill bits are made of hardened steel- thats the proper tool to use to make the hole. If you drill a 1/4 inch hole to fit the body of the threaded anchor, they go in fast & seat securely.

Even though I drilled a pilot hole in the drywall, about 4 out of 8 broke while going into 1/2 inch drywall. Required me to use a drill bit to get the broken head out so I could continue screwing in. I understand the top is intended to break off when the screw in inserted. Unfortunately these broke prematurely which greatly diminished their use/value and created more of a mess than I would have liked.
