The description of these anchors does not mention the wall thickness they were made for or the required hole size and no instructions accompanied the product. I made a purchase based on the picture shown. I ended up drilling 3/8" holes and found it worked well. So far I've used them for 1/2" drywall and it has worked well. my next use will be on 5/8" thick drywall as well as porcelain tile over drywall. I'm hoping these anchors will hold the extra thickness of the wall.
