• Industry standards recommend 1/4 of ultimate test load.
• Holding strength for a SNAPTOGGLE heavy-duty hollow-wall anchor varies directly with the strength and condition of the substrate
and the bolt size—and inversely with variations in hole diameter and the distance of the load from the wall.
• All figures in pounds. Pull-out values based on independent laboratory tests done according to U.S. Government standards.
They should be used as guides only and cannot be guaranteed. The age, condition, and capacity of the substrate must
be considered.
*Failure measured as breakage of drywall portion
** Failure of block

The latest generation of the ever-evolving
TOGGLER hollow-wall anchor technology...
• Holds up to 2x the load
• Solid metal channel resists vibration & shock
• Pre-assembled and ready for immediate use
• Pre-installs without fixture or bolt
• Installs in a significantly smaller hole
• Automatically adjusts to thickness of wall, ceiling, or floor
• Does NOT spin—bolt installs with a screw gun
• Uses a shorter bolt—no need to carry a wing
• New plating is 7 times more corrosion-resistant
• Does NOT fall behind wall when bolt is removed; fixture
can be removed and reinstalled as often as desired
The SNAPTOGGLE anchor is a heavy-duty hollowwall anchor for use in walls, ceilings, or floors of
materials such as gypsum board, drywall with a
steel stud, concrete block, tile over drywall, etc.
The anchor is pre-assembled and ready for immediate
use. The ratcheting strap / locking cap assembly
positions the one-piece zinc-plated (or stainless)
steel anchoring channel flush against the rear of
the wall. The cap slides down the straps to lock
flush against the front of the wall. The straps on
the outside of the wall are then easily and quickly
snapped off by hand flush with the surface of the
wall (no extra tools required). Holding is dependent
only on a metal bolt to metal channel connection.
The SNAPTOGGLE anchor complies with all
existing fire codes for critical applications.

Description — SNAPTOGGLE Heavy-Duty Hollow-Wall Anchors (Toggle Bolts)
Material — zinc-plated 1010 cold rolled steel (or 300 series stainless steel) metal channel, high-impact polystyrene
straps and handle, translucent polypropylene copolymer cap
Screw specification — UNC-thread machine screw (bolt) to match thread in metal channel
Minimum screw length — thickness of wall or ceiling + thickness of item being fastened + 1/2"
Minimum clearance behind wall — 17/8"
Minimum drywall thickness —3/8"
Maximum drywall thickness —35/8" for BA & BB anchors
21/2" for BC, BD & BE anchors

Drill appropriate size hole. Hold metal
channel flat alongside plastic straps &
slide channel through the hole.
Minimum clearance behind wall:
only 1

/8".
Hold ends of straps together between
thumb & forefinger and pull toward you
until channel rests behnd wall. Ratchet
cap along straps with other hand until
flange of cap is flush with wall.
Place thumb between straps at wall.
Push thumb side to side, snapping off
straps level with flange of cap.
Place item over flange. Insert bolt and
tighten until snug against item, then stop.
Use machine screw or bolt to match
thread in metal channel.

The plastic straps and cap washer are positioning and retention elements only. They do not otherwise function as
anchoring elements. Holding is dependent only on a metal bolt to metal channel connection.
The SNAPTOGGLE anchor complies with all existing fire codes for critical applications.
• Gently hand engage at least one thread of bolt with channel before using screw gun
to avoid cross threading the bolt.
• For maximum shear holding, orient channels vertically to floor.
• Use hardened or stainless bolts for maximum weight load.
• Enlargement of specified insertion holes size will reduce anchor effectiveness.
• Remove anchor by removing bolt, inserting screwdrive and popping channel behind
wall off plastic straps with a sharp blow.
• All SNAPTOGGLE anchors meet the requirements of Type V anchors in Federal
Specification FF-B-588-D (superseded).
• All bolts and threaded rods used with SNAPTOGGLE anchors must meet ANSI or
HR 3000 standards to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Also available:
• metric-threaded channels [M5, M6, M8 & M10]
• RoHS-compliant channels
• stainless steel channels
* Long straps (L) for roofing and for
very thick wal ls or ceil ings
