Re: What type of wall anchor

Hi @Rob2023 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about what wall anchor to use.

 

I suggest using the Tox M6 Flip Toggle Bolt. It's a heavy-duty wall anchor and is easy to install with a weight rating of 55kg. 

 

Please make sure to wear personal protection such as gloves, goggles and a mask when working on your project. I recommend looking carefully at the installation instructions at the back of the packaging before installing it.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
