Wall plugs, also known as anchors or wall anchors, are small plastic or metal devices that are used to provide extra support for screws or other fasteners that are driven into walls, ceilings, or other types of surfaces.
Wall plugs are typically inserted into a drilled hole in the wall before the screw is driven into the wall. This creates a more secure attachment, especially in materials that are prone to cracking or crumbling, such as drywall or plaster.
