TWIST-N-LOCK DRYWALL ANCHOR - 75 LB, 20PKSelf-drilling plastic drywall anchors that twist into hollow wall by hand or with a Phillips driver - no pre-drilling, no hammering, no drill bit. The auger threads cut into 1/2" or 5/8" drywall and the body splits and grips on the back side as the screw is driven, locking the anchor against the gypsum core.
- Hollow-wall load capacity: up to 75 lbs
- Pack contains 20 anchors and 20 matching screws (#8 x 1-1/4" Phillips pan head)
- Self-drilling tip - no pilot hole, no drill bit required
- Twist-N-Lock split-and-grip body anchors behind the drywall as the screw is driven
- For 1/2" and 5/8" gypsum board (hollow wall only)
- Reusable - back the screw out without losing the anchor
- For picture frames, mirrors, clocks, shelf brackets, towel bars, curtain rods, smoke alarms
Best For: Heavier mounts: 20x30+ framed art, large mirrors, ladder shelves into the wall, garage-side broom holders, single 24" curtain rod brackets. The 20-count pack matches a small list of harder hangs.
Install Tip: Push the anchor tip against the wall, twist clockwise with a Phillips #2 driver until the flange seats flush with the drywall, then drive the included screw. If the anchor spins without biting, you have hit a stud or blocking - move 1" left or right and try again. NOT for plaster, drywall over masonry, or ceiling installations exceeding 25% of the wall rating.
