A: It’s per bolt.
This is a fantastic product.

A: Hi Cece, the first step would be to remove the metal screw, then you can use scissors to carefully remove the remaining plastic part. The metal piece that is behind the wall will either stay there or fall behind the wall. Thank you!

Q:How does it work
by|Jan 20, 2023

Answer This Question
A: So you'll drill a hole where you want your anchors to be, then you'll put the flip toggle in the hole and push a piece the screw mount into the hole using the zip tie. Once that's in place, you'll drill in the screw to secure the anchor. It's super easy to use. And super secure and heavy duty use.

Q:Would it be overkill to use these for toilet paper holders, robe hooks, towel bar in bathroom?
by|Aug 23, 2022
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: I would say using it for a toilet paper holder would be overkill, but for the towel bar, if there is any possibility it could be used for more than towels, it might not be overkill. Just make sure the screws will fit the towel bar as they may be a bit too big.

Q:Can I use these with a metal stud? If so what would be the max weight if I used 4?

Answer This Question
A: Should be okay, but just make sure that the outer edges of the metal studs are not touching these plastic hangers, this could compromise the integrity of the hangers overtime I guess. The
weight limit should be mentioned in the description of the product.
by|Mar 22, 2022
A: The FLIPTOGGLE can be used in a metal stud as long as the clearance space is at least 2-1/2 inches.
The loads to be considered are loads of application into drywall. Performance test has not been done for usage into metal studs.
Best regards
