Toggle bolts, known as butterfly anchors or Molly bolts, are specialized fasteners designed for mounting heavy items on hollow walls, such as drywall and plaster, where drilling into a stud is not feasible or available. They are known for their strength; ultimate load capacities for toggle bolts in wallboard pounds vary depending on screw diameter but can hold as much as 400 lbs. 1, making them an ideal choice for drywall toggle anchors where extra holding power is essential.

Toggle Bolts: Performance & Mechanical Stats
Description

A fastening system consisting of (1) two matching steel "wings" each bent at two 900 angles, (2) an internally threaded nut with protrusions spaced 1800 apart which serves as a pivot attaching the two wings, (3) a wire spring providing the necessary tension to open and close the wings, and (4) a machine screw which mates with the nut.

Applications

Toggle bolts are light-duty anchors for use in hollow block or gypsum wallboard. They spread the load over a larger area and are more temperature resistant than other hollow wall anchors. They are single-use anchors.

Material

Wing Body: AISI 1008-1010 or equivalent cold rolled steel.

Trunnion Nut: 1/4" thru 3/8": AISI 1010 steel: 1/2": Zamac alloy

Screw: carbon steel

Tensile Strength

Ultimate load capacities for toggle bolts in various materials are listed in the above table. The suggested safe working load is 1/4 the loads listed here.

Plating Toggle bolts are commonly supplied with a clear zinc finish.

Key Characteristics of Toggle Bolts

Design and Functionality: Toggle bolts consist of a metal screw and a spring-loaded wing, which folds and enters the wall opening. Once inside, the wings open, bracing against the backside of the wall to provide strong support.

Weight Capacity: The size of the toggle bolt is a critical factor in determining its weight capacity. For instance, a 1/8-inch toggle can handle about 200 pounds, while a 1/4-inch anchor can support approximately 300 pounds 1. The bolt's diameter and the wall's thickness influence the load capacity 1.

Installation Tools: Essential tools for installing toggle bolts include a battery-powered drill, a drill bit slightly larger than the bolt to create the initial hole, and a Phillips tip bit for driving the screw.
