ABSTRACT:
A wall anchor comprising the combination of a round locking nut and a unique swing-toggle holds a greater weight, while using a smaller drill hole, than existing with typical toggle bolt anchors. The swing-toggle is generally in the configuration of a cylinder, inwardly sliced open from both its opposing ends an arc distance greater than the diameter of the toggle bolt being accommodated and a length to still allow flush and fast securement behind the wall. A pair of projections inwardly facing from the cylinder walls seat between adjacent threads of the toggle bolt in facilitating the securement, while their placement allows for a downwardly pivoting of the swing-toggle once the anchor is inserted through the drill hole in the wall.
