Install and Test Toggle Bolt

What happens here

Finally, the toggle bolt is demonstrated. This anchor typically provides the strongest hold in drywall. Installation begins with drilling a larger pilot hole into the drywall sheet using a cordless drill and a larger drill bit, as specified by the toggle bolt's size. The toggle wings are folded flat, and the bolt is pushed through the pilot hole. Once the wings pass through the drywall, they spring open behind the wall. The bolt is then tightened, pulling the toggle wings flush against the inside surface of the drywall, creating a strong anchor point. After setting, the screw is removed for the weight test. A bucket is attached, and water is continuously added until the anchor fails. The toggle bolt holds roughly 150 lbs before pulling out of the drywall, showcasing its superior strength among the anchors tested.
