molly bolt
Hollow wall fastener
A molly bolt is a type of fastener designed to anchor screws in hollow walls like drywall.
The sleeve expands behind the wall when the screw is tightened, creating a secure hold where ordinary screws would pull out: Use molly bolts for hanging heavy mirrors.
Also called a hollow wall anchor.
