5/16-in. Flanged Alligator Anchors - QTY: 100

5/16-in. Flanged Alligator Anchors provide reliable, high-strength fastening in a wide range of building materials, including concrete, brick, stone, hollow block, drywall, and tile over drywall. The specially formulated polypropylene anchor body expands and flows into imperfections and undercuts in the drilled hole, creating a secure mechanical bond around the screw while helping seal the hole against moisture.

The flanged design helps prevent the anchor from being pushed through the mounting surface, making these anchors especially useful when fastening to hollow walls, ceilings, and other substrates where a cavity may be encountered. In dense solid materials, optimal holding strength is achieved by using a drill bit and screw diameter matched to the anchor diameter.

High-Strength, Versatile Wall Anchors

• High holding power: Designed to provide exceptional strength in solid concrete, brick, stone, and other dense masonry materials.
• Works in solid and hollow materials: Holds securely in concrete, brick, stone, hollow brick, hollow block, drywall, and tile over drywall.
• Flanged design: The integrated flange helps keep the anchor from pulling through the mounting surface and is ideal when a cavity is anticipated.
• Secure screw-to-wall bond: The polypropylene body molds into imperfections in the hole to create a dependable connection.
• Helps seal the hole: The anchor design helps prevent moisture from entering around the fastener.
• Anti-spin head: The uniquely shaped head helps prevent the anchor from spinning during installation while providing a countersinking effect.
• Broad screw compatibility: Accepts a wide range of screw sizes for greater installation flexibility.
• Forgiving installation: Maintains strong holding power even when there are minor variations in screw size or drilled-hole diameter.
• Vibration and shock resistant: Designed to maintain a secure hold in applications subject to movement and impact.
• Reusable fastening: The screw can be removed and reinserted into the same anchor without significant loss of holding power.
• Corrosion resistant: The anchor is corrosion-proof when used with stainless steel screws.
• Quantity: 100 anchors per package.

Solid Wall Installation

1. Drill a hole into the wall using a drill bit the same diameter as the anchor. Drill to a depth at least twice the length of the anchor.
2. Push the flanged Alligator Anchor into the hole and tap it flush with the wall using a hammer.
3. Position the item being mounted over the anchor, insert the appropriate screw, and tighten until the fastener is secure and flush with the item.
4. For best installation results, use a screw gun to drive the screw.
