Light Duty Anchors

Light duty anchors are used to mount lightweight items into drywall, plaster, and other hollow wall surfaces. These anchors ensure that screws grip firmly even where there’s no stud or solid backing. Common applications include shelving brackets, hooks, signage, and fixtures where minimal load is required. They are available in multiple configurations to suit different wall types and hole sizes.

Secure Anchoring Solutions for Drywall and Hollow Wall Installations


  • Toggle and Expansion Designs Help Distribute Load Behind the Wall Surface
  • Toggle bolt drywall anchors open behind the wall after insertion, spreading the weight of the fixture over a larger area for added stability.


  • Plastic and Nylon Wall Anchors Provide Grip Without Wall Damage
  • Plastic anchors for drywall are inserted into pre-drilled holes and expand when screws are driven in, holding the screw securely while minimizing wall surface stress.


  • Screw-In Styles Allow Fast Setup Without Pre-Drilling Requirements
  • Screw in wall anchors are twisted directly into drywall, offering quick anchoring for small items with minimal tools and effort.


  • Conical Shapes Improve Holding Power in Thin Wallboards or Paneling
  • Conical drywall anchors maintain firm grip in thinner wall materials by creating compression along the anchor body during screw insertion.


  • Lightweight Fixture Support Without Requiring Wall Studs or Reinforcement
  • These anchors are suitable for clocks, light frames, or wire-mounted items where there’s no need to locate studs behind the drywall.
