3. Sleeve Anchors These are similar to masonry anchors but are often used in conjunction with non-masonry materials. They have a sleeve that expands against the wall material when the screw is tightened, making them versatile for various applications.

2. Reduced Stripping Traditional screws can often strip, especially when dealing with tougher materials. Hex screws minimize this risk, as the shape of the head allows for better engagement with the tool, reducing the chances of slippage. This is a significant advantage for woodworkers aiming for precision and reliability in their projects.
