Heavy Duty Metal Cavity Wall Fixings \u0026 Molly Bolts for Plasterboard \u0026 Drywall, Zinc Plated Steel Anchors, M4-M6, 7 Sizes","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-duty metal hollow-wall anchors\u003c\/strong\u003e (often known as molly bolts, hollow wall fixings, cavity wall fixings or heavy duty plasterboard fixings) for fixing into plasterboard, drywall and other hollow-backed panel materials. Unlike a simple plastic push-in wall plug, which only grips the sides of the drilled hole by friction, this is a genuine mechanical-expansion fixing: a slotted steel sleeve that permanently flares open behind the board when the central screw is tightened, spreading the clamping load across a wide area on the concealed face rather than relying on the board material alone to hold a screw thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from carbon steel and finished with a white zinc-plated coating for general corrosion resistance, each anchor is supplied with its own removable machine screw, so a fixture can be taken down and re-hung without the anchor itself dropping into the wall cavity. Stocked in three thread sizes – M4, M5 and M6 – across seven length options, the range covers everything from lightweight brackets through to genuinely heavy items such as radiators and wall-mounted cabinets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it works:\u003c\/strong\u003e the anchor is pushed, or gently tapped, through a pre-drilled hole until its flanged head sits flush against the front face of the board. As the central screw is turned, an internal threaded insert is drawn back towards the flange, forcing the slotted body of the sleeve to buckle outward into a set of splayed “legs” behind the board. This is what gives a molly-bolt-style hollow wall anchor its pull-out resistance over a plain plastic plug – once set, the sleeve cannot be pulled back out through the hole, and it bears against the reverse of the board rather than just the sides of the drilled hole. Pointed spikes on the underside of the flange also bite into the front face of the board as the screw is driven, stopping the whole anchor from spinning in the hole during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenuine mechanical-expansion anchor:\u003c\/strong\u003e a slotted steel sleeve flares open behind the board when set, unlike a friction-fit plastic plug.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWide load-spreading footprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e the expanded sleeve legs bear against the back of the board over a wide area, reducing point-loading and pull-through.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-rotation flange spikes:\u003c\/strong\u003e pointed spikes on the underside of the flange grip the front face of the board, stopping the anchor spinning as the screw is driven.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemovable, reusable fixing screw:\u003c\/strong\u003e the captive-thread design lets the screw be taken out and refitted repeatedly without the anchor dropping into the cavity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorrosion-resistant finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e carbon steel construction with a white zinc-plated coating for everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy to fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e no specialised tools required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e made from durable materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree thread sizes, seven lengths:\u003c\/strong\u003e M4, M5 and M6, each available in multiple lengths, to suit different board thicknesses and fixture weights.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize (thread x length)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eThread diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSleeve diameter (D)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSleeve length below flange (L)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOverall length incl. screw (l)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight per unit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM4 x 32mm (1.26in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.5mm (0.26in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32.5mm (1.28in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42.5mm (1.67in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7g (0.25oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM4 x 39mm (1.54in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.5mm (0.26in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e39.0mm (1.54in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49.0mm (1.93in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8g (0.28oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM4 x 47mm (1.85in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.5mm (0.26in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47.0mm (1.85in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58.0mm (2.28in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10g (0.35oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM5 x 37mm (1.46in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.8mm (0.35in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37.0mm (1.46in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49.0mm (1.93in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13g (0.46oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM5 x 51mm (2.01in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.8mm (0.35in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e51.0mm (2.01in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e63.0mm (2.48in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16g (0.56oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM6 x 36mm (1.42in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.5mm (0.41in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36.0mm (1.42in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49.0mm (1.93in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18g (0.63oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM6 x 53mm (2.09in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.5mm (0.41in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e53.0mm (2.09in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e63.0mm (2.48in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22g (0.78oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSleeve diameter (D) is the same for every length within a thread size (M4\/M5\/M6), and the hole must let the sleeve pass through.
