Get dependable holding power with 5/16-in. Un-Flanged Alligator Anchors, designed for secure fastening in concrete, brick, stone, drywall, hollow brick, hollow block, and other building materials. The specially formulated polypropylene anchor body molds into imperfections and undercuts in the drilled hole, helping create a strong mechanical bond between the anchor, screw, and surrounding material.
These versatile wall anchors are especially effective when installation conditions are less than perfect. The anchor helps seal the hole around the screw to reduce moisture entry while providing excellent resistance to vibration and shock. The un-flanged design is ideal for push-through mounting, allowing the anchor to be installed through the material or item being fastened when appropriate.
