3. Toggle Bolts While not purely plastic, these anchors combine a plastic body with a metal toggle mechanism. They are used for extremely heavy applications and are ideal for hollow walls.

Screws are another essential type of structural fastener, distinguished by their helical threads. They provide excellent holding power when driven into materials like wood, metal, or plastic. Common screw types include wood screws, machine screws, and self-tapping screws. Wood screws are designed specifically for use in wooden materials, while machine screws are used in conjunction with nuts or tapped holes in metal. Self-tapping screws, on the other hand, create their own thread as they are driven into the material, eliminating the need for pre-drilling.

- HVAC Systems In heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, hex head self-tapping screws hold ductwork and components together, ensuring efficient operation.

1. Electronics In the electronics sector, these screws are frequently used to assemble devices where space is limited. Their low profile can prevent interference with other components, ensuring clean assembly of circuit boards and casings.
