“I needed to add a bracket to a metal cabinet where there was no way to hold a nut on the inside. These made the job straightforward.”
“The sample fit in my sheet-metal test panel exactly the way I expected. I liked being able to check the size before committing to the repair.”
“Sorting the sizes before starting saved me a lot of trial and error. The four-leg body is easy to identify once you have it in hand.”
“I used one for a small hook on a hollow patio post. The flush front looks neat, and I didn’t have to open the post to reach the back.”
It is commonly called a jack nut, collapsible nut, or hollow-wall threaded anchor. Its metal legs expand behind thin or hollow material as the screw is tightened.
No. The anchor is inserted and set from the front, which makes it useful when the reverse side is enclosed.
It is intended for suitable thin or hollow materials with clearance behind the surface, including many sheet-metal and hollow-section projects. Always test the hole size and material condition first.
Match the thread size and body length to your compatible screw, pre-drilled hole, material thickness, and project requirements. The available sets are M4×20, M5×25, M6×25, and M6×30.
No. Tighten only until the anchor is fully set and snug. Overtightening can damage the anchor or the surrounding material.
