Product description
The TOGGLER SNAPTOGGLE BB toggle anchor provides a secure hold from within various hollow materials 3/8" to 3-5/8" thick including gypsum board, drywall, and concrete block, and is made in USA. The anchor requires a 1/4"-20 UNC-threaded metal bolt with a minimum length equal to the thickness of the item being fastened and the thickness of the mounting material plus 1/2". The anchor channel will not rotate when installing the bolt, whether installing by hand or with a screw gun, and will stay in place if the bolt is removed to facilitate fixture and screw changes. The SNAPTOGGLE anchor meets Federal Specification FF-B-588-D for Type V anchors.The anchor consists of a corrosion-resistant zinc-plated steel anchor channel that inserts through a 1/2" drilled hole in walls, ceilings, or floors and installs against the back side of the mounting material; plastic straps attached to the channel that position it into place; and a plastic cap that slides down the straps and presses into the drilled hole firmly to lock the anchor channel in place behind the mounting material. Once the cap is set in place, the straps snap off by hand. The item being fastened affixes to the mounting material by inserting a bolt through the item, into the drilled hole, and through the anchoring channel behind the material and tightening.SpecificationsUltimate Tensile and Shear Strength ValuesMediaDrill DiameterBolt DescriptionUltimate Tensile StrengthUltimate Shear Strength1/2" Drywall1/2"1/4"-20 UNC zinc-plated steel265 lb.241 lb.5/8" Drywall1/2"1/4"-20 UNC zinc-plated steel356 lb.324 lb.1/2" Drywall with 25 Gauge Stud*1/2"1/4"-20 UNC zinc-plated steel425 lb.Not available5/8" Drywall with 25 Gauge Stud*1/2"1/4"-20 UNC zinc-plated steel464 lb.Not availableConcrete Block1/2"1/4"-20 UNC zinc-plated steel1,080 lb.Not available*Failure measured as breakage of drywall portion.Warning: Use one-fourth or less of listed maximum values for safe working loads (as required by local regulations).

The fastener may be included with or integrated into the anchor itself, or it may be sold separately. Anchors provide support through various methods, including expansion from within or behind the substrate or even adhesive compounds.TOGGLER Anchor System manufactures wall anchors and toggle bolts.

- Reviewed in Canada on October 25, 2022Verified PurchaseI bought these toggle anchors before and they were very helpful for mounting TVs. I would recommend using these over the 3/16" versions for TV mounts as they can withstand much heavier weight. I recommend not to over tighten the screws when you hanging your TV mount as you can break the back metal piece off fairly easy. READ the instructions very carefully as they can be easily installed incorrectly. It needs to be tight and flush against the wall so make sure you tighten the anchor part before breaking off the tabs. Also watch YouTube videos of others installing them so you get an idea how to install them correctly. I have used these to hang up many TV mounts and never had an issue with them.
This pack does not come with the metal bolts and just have the toggle anchors so you would need to buy the bolts separately. The bolts you need are 1/4"-20 UNC-threaded bolts.
- Reviewed in Canada on August 13, 2020Verified PurchaseI got these when they were a lot cheaper, not sure If I would buy them at this price. They're probably the strongest anchors out there, although sometimes during installation they've broken when I didn't get the screw in right. These do not come with the machine screws and you'll have to buy them separately.
- Reviewed in Canada on May 8, 2019Verified PurchaseWork like a charm. Very strong
- Reviewed in Canada on January 20, 2019Verified PurchaseGreat price and delivery. Would be five stars if it included the bolts / screws. They are a great product where a heavy / strong anchor is needed.

3.0 out of 5 stars kind of a fiddly PITA
Verified Purchasei wanted to love these things. the idea of easy/fast install and strong was appealing. i used a full box of 50 installing various things (closet systems, garage organizers etc) in a new house, so gave them a solid college try. they're in my walls holding stuff up, so that's worth something! but were kind of a fiddly PITA. here's why :
- with a machine screw type fastener, precise alignment between the screw and threads is critical. otherwise, the bolt cross threads when attempting to fasten. which is exactly what happens with these snaptoggles. the same flexible (kind of genius) mechanism that allows you to fold the toggle, insert it, and unfold it on the other side, does little to precisely align the toggle once zipped down. if the threads are off parallel ever so slightly, it's a no go. and yes, I was using the right bolts. they threaded effortlessly in my hands. ~50-60% of the time, insalled, they went in smooth as butter straight away. but the other 40-50% of the time, when alignment wasn't spot on, any time gained on the fast ones was lost trying to get the bolt not to cross thread on the toggle head - screw in, nope, screw out, jiggle a little, screw in, nope, screw out, jiggle a little more, again and again and again. a fiddly PITA. I was able to get all but one to eventually take but at a loss in terms of time. super annoying too when trying to crank through projects.
- due to the cross threading issue, even when zipped down as tightly to the wall as possible, the toggle would occasionally spin in the wall preventing the bolt from catching.
- the plastic portions of the fastener seem especially brittle. any little bit of twist force and the heads are prone to snapping. again, problematic given the cross thread issue. so a few times the toggle simply snapped off and fell into the wall when trying to get a bolt started. which makes me question their strength. I did NOT independently test their marketed holding values given the redundancy i had in studs.
- lastly, the 1/4" bolt was just slightly bigger than the standard in just about everything I had to hang. of course. because i refused to throw the entire box out, i had to drill out many a closet / garage hanger bar in order to accommodate the 1/4" bolt diameter.
comparatively, wingits do a much better job addressing the alignment issue. never had a cross threading issue. but are much slower to install and require a bigger insertion hole. why i reserve their use for very specific circumstances. likewise, the good 'ol molly doesn't have the same threading issue as the alignment is fixed to the head. in the end, molly's were much easier/faster to install albeit at loss in terms of (marketed) holding strength. but not enough to have made a difference in my (and many) cases. my instinct for overkill in this case cost me.

5.0 out of 5 stars There’s nothing like it!
Verified PurchaseIf you’re not somewhat competent with hand tools then don’t buy these and you don’t belong hanging something that could possibly injure someone when it falls anyways. Leave it to your old school uncle, even your dad. Don’t complain otherwise because I have used about 5,000 of these bad boys hanging the unthinkable because I know what cross threading means in the real world (Google it Genx’s you’ll learn something) and if you cross thread it’s going to not work and you will waste this expensive life saver because you’ve not ventured into the real world to know what it’s like to drill holes, screw things together, and use nuts and bolts. The exact thing that holds this world together besides my beloved Togglers.
Godspeed my friends.
