What they don’t tell you....
Actually a big hassle and clumsy to install:
•
cuts fingers—no easy-to-use pull ring
•
made like a toy—cap slips off in box or in hand
•
none for bolts bigger than 1/4" diameter
•
not available with metric threads—TOGGLER
BRAND has M5, M6, M8, and M10
•
not available in stainless steel—all TOGGLER
BRAND available in 300 series stainless steel
What this means to you...
•
Pierced metal on axis of pull substantially
weakens KapToggle fastener, and
•
misaligned or bumped bolt pushes metal channel
off plastic straps—can’t use a screw gun.
•
Larger hole means weaker holding—TOGGLER
BRAND
outholds KapToggle fasteners by as much
as 2.5 times (published results).
•
Won’t work in ceilings, or when channel faces
wrong way when inserted into wall (see Figure 2).
•
Non-flush seating of metal channel prevents bolt
from seating properly in threaded hole of
KapToggle channel.

What they tell you...
"The strongest, hassle-free way to hang almost
anything on hollow surfaces, such as sheetrock,
cinder block, metal, fiberglass, panelled walls and
ceilings."
What they don’t tell you...
•
Single-pivot attachment of plastic straps to metal
channel directly in line with axis of pull v. stronger
off-axis double-pivot TOGGLER attachment.
•
1/4" KapToggle fastener needs a hole 25% bigger
than same size TOGGLER
BRAND.
•
KapToggle is a gravity toggle (see Figure 1)—
does
NOT spring into place automatically.
•
Spalling, a stud or debris prevent KapToggle’s
metal channel from seating flush against rear of
wall—cannot easily control channel’s position
behind wall.
