02276 Wall-Dog - 1/4-Inch by 1-1/2-Inch Black Phosphate Pan Head Light Duty Anchor, 100 Per Box

These BEASTS are the TOP DOG! I have no "dog" in this fight: nobody gave me free stuff or paid me for this Review, but I wish they had. Replacing washing machine hot/cold water valves attached to a brick wall. Couldn't risk torquing old CPVC pipes that in ancient times someone secured --crookedly-- to the wall w/ 2x4s + concrete nails. Tried in vain to use TapCons. Discovered WallDog thanks to "See Jane Drill" on YouRube. Use hammer drill w/ masonry bit to drill hole about 1-3/4-in. for your 1-1/2-in. WallDog. Blow dust out of your newly drilled hole. Use regular drill (or a simple Phillips screwdriver in a tight space-- ask me how I know this) w/ Phillips bit driver, to guide WallDog into its new dog house. Had to think outside the box. Abandoned idea of screwing those dinosaur 2x4s to brick wall. Instead, employed plumber's (metal, pre-drilled holes) tape to strap 2x4s to brick. No need for 4-in. mortar screws. These 1-1/2-in. pups screw in tight, unlike the other brand I used first that just seemed to strip out its hole. Essential to have a box of these in your tool cabinet. Lowes & Home Depot, no luck-- Amazon came through, again. P.S. Drill hole into mortar between bricks, not into brick itself. This dog gets the bone!

These walldog screws are great. WAY easier to hang things in drywall with these. I don't know why anyone would want to use the old school hard to use drywall anchors when these exist. Fast, easy, and leave smaller holes. The time and frustration you save yourself are worth the cost. Get these and you'll never go back!

My go to for attaching shelves that need to be aligned just right for aesthetics and aren't used to hold a ton of weight. Way faster and way easier than using plastic anchor and screw combos. These fasteners are just really good at attaching things to drywall! Use common sense and don't try to attach a pull-up bar to 1/4" drywall or a baby swing from the ceiling. Seriously though, these work for just about anything you need to hang on the wall.

These work great in drywall!

Ease of us. Wall hangings. No need to use plastic inserts, so no drilling

While I returned these, I only did so because I had enough at home and didn’t extra. I looks these for hanging easy, not Too heavy items. Only downside is getting the hole started. Sometimes it wobbles.

This is an excellent product and lifesaver for me.We have drywall and we were looking to be able to hang some heavy frames and wall hanger for clothes. Hammer and nail operation in the past was messy and not very durable.And we did not want to buy an expensive drill for light to moderate usage – there comes the additional expense of drill bits and so on.The length works perfectly. Attached a pic for bench marking for others.These wall dogs by no means are cheap, but boy are these strong. I have used this for a wall hanger (used extensively for clothes, heavy jackets, pants etc.), heavy wall clock, whiteboard and lacks.They have held pretty well and are a testament to the strength of the anchor.And they are very easy to install - I just use a screwdriver to install them in the wall. No need for expensive drill set.I would highly recommend it for household usage.This, by far, is one of the best products I have bought at Amazon.

I literally only use this product to hang things. No huge holes, very strong hold and has never failed
