Toggler SNAPTOGGLE BM5 Hollow-Wall Anchors – Box of 50

The Toggler SNAPTOGGLE BM5 is a hollow-wall anchor with an M5 metric thread and a zinc-plated steel channel. It creates a secure metal-to-metal fixing point in compatible cavity-wall materials while allowing the fixture bolt to be removed without losing the correctly installed anchor behind the wall.

This trade box contains 50 BM5 anchors. Each anchor requires a 13mm installation hole, accommodates a 10–92mm grip range and requires at least 48mm clearance behind the wall.

Key benefits

• Solid metal channel: sits behind the wall to spread the fixing force.
• M5 threaded fixing: provides a reusable metal-to-metal connection for a compatible M5 bolt.
• Removable fixture: the bolt can be removed while the correctly installed anchor remains in position.
• Controlled installation: the straps hold the channel against the rear surface while the cap is fitted.
• Wide grip range: accommodates compatible wall and fixture build-ups from 10mm to 92mm.
• Trade quantity: supplied as a box of 50 anchors for regular installation work.

Typical applications

• Suitable hollow and cavity-wall installations
• Plasterboard and drywall where permitted by the manufacturer
• Wall-mounted brackets, rails and suitable fixtures
• Cabinet and shelving installations
• Commercial maintenance and refurbishment work

The safe working load depends on the wall material, wall thickness, substrate condition, anchor spacing, fixture design and loading direction. Do not publish a universal load figure without verified technical data for the exact installation.

Installation guidance

1. Confirm that the wall material, wall thickness and cavity depth are suitable.
2. Check for concealed pipes and electrical cables before drilling.
3. Drill a clean 13mm hole.
4. Pass the metal channel through the hole.
5. Pull the straps forward until the channel sits flat against the rear of the wall.
6. Slide the plastic cap along the straps until its flange sits flush against the wall.
7. Move the straps from side to side to snap them off level with the cap.
8. Position the fixture and insert a compatible M5 bolt.
9. Tighten securely without crushing or damaging the wall material.

The required bolt length depends on the wall thickness and the thickness of the item being fixed. Do not publish a universal bolt length unless the supplied bolt specification is confirmed.
