The Hillman 5018 Drive Wall Anchor is a medium-duty fastener designed for securing fixtures in drywall, plaster, and tile. These anchors feature a sharp drive point tip that pierces drywall easily without requiring pre-drilling, making installation quick and straightforward for both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts. Once installed, the anchor's unique design provides reliable holding power for hanging shelves, artwork, mirrors, and other lightweight to medium-weight items throughout your home.
Unlike traditional anchors that require multiple steps or special tools, the Hillman drive anchor simply taps into place. The two prongs on the shell head prevent rotation during expansion, while the spider-like legs expand and draw tightly against the backside of the wall, delivering superior stability compared to standard fasteners. After installation, you can change or remove the screw without disturbing the anchor itself, allowing for easy fixture replacement or adjustment.
