FAQs
Can these be used in hollow drywall?

Are the screws included?
Yes, this kit comes with matching screws optimized for these specific anchors.
Can I reuse these anchors after removing a shelf?
It is generally not recommended to reuse plastic anchors as the expansion structure is often deformed during the initial installation.
How much weight can these hold?
While holding power varies by wall material, these are intended for common household fixtures like mirrors, picture frames, and small shelves.
Troubleshooting
Anchor spins while trying to drive the screw
The drill hole is likely too large. Try using a smaller drill bit or using a wall patch filler to tighten the hole diameter.
Screw is difficult to drive in
Ensure you are using the correct screwdriver size or check that the anchor is fully seated flush with the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Drill: Use a masonry bit for brick or concrete, and a standard twist bit for plasterboard. Ensure the hole depth is slightly deeper than the length of the anchor.
Insert: Push the anchor into the hole until it is flush with the wall surface. A gentle tap with a hammer may be required.
Mount: Align your fixture, insert the provided screw, and tighten until firm. Avoid over-tightening with an impact driver to prevent stripping the material.
Care: Keep the anchors stored in a dry environment. If you need to remove the fixture, reverse the screw carefully; the anchor is designed for single-use in most applications and should be replaced if damaged during removal.
