Expanding metal wall anchors are designed to hold heavy items by distributing the load across a larger area within the wall. They typically consist of a metal sleeve that expands when a screw is driven into it. This expansion action grips the surrounding material, creating a solid anchor point that can support significant weight. They are particularly useful in scenarios where traditional screws might loosen over time, such as in drywall installation or when hanging items from concrete surfaces.

The integrated wrench flats provide another significant advantage. These flats enhance ease of use, allowing for more efficient installation and removal processes. By providing a surface for easy gripping, they minimize the risk of hand slippage, which can lead to injuries or damage to the components being fastened. Moreover, they prevent rounding of the stud while under load, ensuring a longer lifespan and better maintenance of the connection’s integrity.

4. Easy Removal If adjustments or replacements are necessary, Tek screws can be easily removed without damaging the surrounding material, unlike other fastening methods.
