PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Wall-Dog is an all steel, one-piece screw anchor, which features high-profile threads
for easy fastening into wallboard and other masonry base materials. The deep cutting,
corkscrew-like threads provide for smooth entry and a powerful hold. When removed, the
Wall-Dog leaves a much smaller hole than toggles or other systems. For aesthetic appearances,
t
he Wall-Dog is available in two color finishes: white and chrome; and in two head styles:
pan and oval. For fastening into wallboard or wood, no pre-drilling is required – the anchor
is inserted through the fixture and screwed in with an ordinary Phillips screwdriver. Fastening
into concrete, hollow or grout-filled concrete masonry, brick and plaster requires a pre-drilled
hole using a 3/16"ANSI bit. Wall-Dog anchors are ideal for light to medium duty anchoring.
Typical applications include lightweight fixtures, drapery supports, as well as electrical,
telephone and cable accessories.
