How much weight can it hold on steel studs?
What are you mounting and what Mount are you using.
If you using fixed or tilt tv mount you can mount upto 120lbs and use at least 4 anchors into metal studs. if you are using articulating mount. use 4 anchors into metal studs and can hold 60-70lbs.
@@LeslievilleGeeks Sorry it's been a while, but how much weight for 2 anchors into a metal stud but the other 2 in drywall (full motion articulating mount)?
I have one tv in living room fixed to steel studs. But in the bedroom opposite of the living room, im putting in a tv, only one steel stud will be common to both sets. Will that stud be able to handle it?
Yes. Try to avoid swivel mount, Just the one with tilt or fixed function is. going to be safer.
@LeslievilleGeeks after I mounted it my wife didn't think it was centered to the room. So I plastered over the big holes that I made. Found the center of the room and lo and behold, wood studs instead of metal. So I'm happy, the big set in the front and the set in the bedroom on totally different studs.
Will these hold a 50’ inch tv that’s on a full movement wall mount?
If you find a mount that can attaché to two vertical metal studs and your tv is below 65lbs it should be ok.
how to you avoid from drilling into the edge of the stud?
1. Scan stud multiple times and find stud edge.
Using the stud finder mark out the left and right edge of the stud. Run the stud finder a couple of times over the stud and mark the edges. The width of the stud should be 1.5”.
2. Find existing drywall screw
If you are using the magnetic stud finder then try to find where the pull is the strongest, and that is where a existing screw holding the drywall is. Usually that screw should be very centre of the stud.
@@LeslievilleGeeks thank you for the tip
Will it hold an 70’ LG tv ?
Yes. Use a fixed or tilt tv mount.
Will these toggles hold a 94 lbs.tv mount that swivels out ?
Not for a mount that swivels out.
@@LeslievilleGeeks samsung 78 curve tv will be only 3 to 4 inches of the wall and will not be extending out at all just the minimum the mount will allow using the Flip toggler will this still not be ok ?
I drilled a hole through the drywall and the metal stud using a half-inch drill bit. unfortunately two of my four holes (both holes are on the same side), the metal was stubborn and the bit made a mess of the surrounding drywall so that it isn't really a round hole. consequently, i can't really fit the toggle snugly enough for it to stay in place. any suggestions on how i can reinforce this hole? shall i just use putty/spackle and let it dry/harden?
That’s ok. Just assure the toggle is vertically in place against the metal. Once you place your tv mount and screw in the machine screw it will tighten up against the wall.
