Why Wall Anchors Matter for Hanging Systems
If you're not securing your hanging system to a wall stud, a reliable wall anchor is crucial.
Without the right anchor, screws may loosen over time, causing your artwork or signage to fall—leading to wall damage and safety hazards.
Fun Fact: Standard plastic anchors hold only 10-20 lbs, while Cobra TripleGrip® can support up to 100 lbs!

Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Follow these simple steps to install Cobra TripleGrip® Anchors:
1. Mark the Hanging Location
Use a pencil or level to determine where your anchor should go. If installing a hanging track, ensure it is straight and aligned.
2. Drill a Pilot Hole
Use the correct drill bit size based on Cobra’s color-coded system. Drill deep enough to accommodate the full length of the anchor.
3. Insert the Cobra TripleGrip® Anchor
Using a small hammer, gently tap it in the Anchor in the drilled hole until flush with the wall. Ensure anti-rotation wings are engaged.
4. Secure the Screw
Drive the screw into the anchor until snug but not overtightened. If using AS Hanging Display Systems, install the track or hardware now, refer to steps 5 and 6.
5. Install AS Hanging hardware
In this case, using the provided hardware, we install the Click and Connect needed to install a Click Rail Track. Screw in until tighten.
6. Install the Click Rail Track
Push track over installed Connectors with a solid rap of a hand at each Connector. A 'click' sound should be heard when the track is properly attached to the Connectors.
