Installation Instructions
Drill hole same diameter as anchor.
Push in anchor and tap flush.
Place item over anchor. Insert screw
and tighten flush with item.
Anti-rotation fins prevent spinning
while the ALLIGATOR anchor expands
along the screw in solid walls ... up to
2x
its original length.
In unexpected cavities or in hollow
walls (hollow brick, hollow block,
tile over drywall, etc.), the screw thread
and anchor teeth lock together to resist
vibration and shock.
The ALLIGATOR anchor is supplied in the closed position, ready for rapid and immediate utilization.
The screw used to fasten the item also opens & sets the anchor in place: in both solid & hollow (cavity) walls.
• It is recommended that the screw be completely set without pause, because of the remolding of the anchor
under pressure.
• Setting the screw head flush with the fixture completes the installation.
The uniquely shaped head of the ALLIGATOR anchor prevents the anchor from countersinking into the hole,
and its substanial anti-rotation fins wedge against the interior of the hole to prevent spinning even with the
use of a screw gun.
NOTE
: The anti-rotation fins
cut
into drywall.
• Ordinary plastic plug anchors are liable to spin in a hole, preventing screw insertion. They are also very likely
to be pushed to the bottom of the insertion hole, resulting in incomplete screw engagement (the screw is
stopped by the bottom of the hole) and very significant loss of holding strength.
The structure of the ALLIGATOR anchor is designed to lever and wedge open behind or in hollow walls [3b].
This provides real holding power, greater than many much larger and more specialized anchors specifically
made for hollow walls, such as the ordinary wall auger type. No other solid-wall anchor provides an additional
structure or capability for reliable use in hollow walls.
• All TOGGLER anchors are constructed completely out of inert materials.
• OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.1200 and DOT standards are not applicable.
• No MSDS is required for any TOGGLER anchor.
