Wall board anchor is a one piece drive type anchor designed for use in hollow gypsum wall board for light to medium duty loads. It is made from heat treated carbon steel which is zinc coated using a special plating process and can be used with No. 6 or No. 8 screws. Wall board anchor is a fast, easy to use expansion anchor designed for use in wall board. As the screw enters the anchor, it engages the pre-formed tabs in each leg causing them to expand outwards into the base material. Removal of the anchor, if required, is easy. Once removed, the anchor leaves a small slit in the wall board versus the gaping holes left with other types of hollow wall anchors.
Place the tip of the anchor against the face of the wallboard and tap in with a hammer of back of a screwdriver until the flange is seated flush against the wallboard. | Locate the fixture and insert a No. 6 or No. 8 sheet metal screw through the fixture hole into the installed anchor. Tighten the screw until the fixture is securely seated against the base material and the anchor is fully expanded. | To remove the screw and the fixture, then insert the screw into the anchor one turn. Pull on the screw to slide the anchor out of the slit in the face of the wallboard. |
