Hilitchi 24-Piece Hollow Wall Drive Anchor Kit (3 Sizes)
Product description
What’s included: 24 zinc-plated steel hollow-wall drive anchors in three different sizes stored in a plastic tray with separate compartments so each size is kept organized.
Materials and finish: The anchors are made from zinc-plated steel for rust resistance and corrosion protection, allowing use in moderately humid indoor environments and extending working life compared with untreated metal.
Sizes and dimensions: The assortment covers three diameters (approximately 1/4", 3/16", and 1/8") with corresponding lengths commonly used for hollow-wall fixing (roughly 35 mm, 46 mm and 59 mm). Each size is grouped in its own section of the case for quick selection.
Design and application: These anchors have a tapered, pointed tip (red-tinted on the factory finish) to ease entry and a Phillips-compatible round head for standard screw drives. They are intended for drywall, plaster, tile, thin hollow doors and similar board materials where a spread-type anchor is required for better holding power.
How to use: Drill a pilot hole with depth and diameter matched to the anchor, push the anchor into the opening, back the screw out a few millimetres from the head (about 4–5 mm), then use a setting tool or the screw head to press the screw inward so the anchor’s split expands behind the panel and locks in place.
After-sale support: The manufacturer offers customer support with a commitment to respond within 12 hours and provides a 90-day free replacement policy if you encounter defects, with a satisfaction guarantee for buyers.

Quality was hit-or-miss
Several anchors twisted or bent while setting; some pieces fractured. I’m hesitant to trust them for heavy or valuable items.
