That's an anchor generally used for masonry or concrete. Note the tapered end of the screw/bolt. You drill the masonry or concrete to the diameter of the sleeve. Then insert the sleeve into the drilled hole. As you tighten the nut the tapered end is drawn up into the sleeve thereby expanding and locking in the sleeve. Of course, you don't use this if you are not mounting to masonry or concrete.hi,
I've just bought a wall mount (ds-1602zj) for a ptz camera and it has come with some weird type of screws I've never seen before. I was hoping for some help on how to install the screws into the wall, the manual that comes with is useless. Please see below for a pic of the screws.

Cheers, I'll try it again that way (I haven't actually started fitting it yet, just playing around with the stuff as it is)stud -> mount -> flat washer -> locking washer -> nut.
this is correct:
#2 with the washers on top of your bracket. Therefore, this means the bracket mounting hole size should be a little bit larger than the diameter of the sleeve anchor. So use your bracket to lay out all your hole locations and then drill your holes in the mansonry/concrete to the appropriate depth. Then, hold your bracket in place and insert all the sleeve anchors. Finally, tighten all the nuts in place.In reference to the above post, what I meant was like the pics below. Out of the two pics which is the correct way. Thanks

That is very true, didn't think to buy replacement screws, thanks for the reminderprotip: throw every anchor you receive with any product right into the garbage bin; from kids toys to 100inch televisions... then go buy some quality ones form your LHS.
Chinese anchors are made of cast aluminum from unwashed soda cans pulled out of the sewer canals.. you'll be lucky to get em into cardboard before they fail.
Masonry and the camera weighs around 10kgWhats your surface? How much does your camera weigh w/mount?
If your on wood/vynil siding just use lag bolts and predrill em so you dont split your lumber.. if your on concrete/maisonry it really depends on construction.. cinder block u can get spring loaded ones in for example.. but those kind I never really been fond of.
Funnily enough I've been trying to fit the bracket today and have been having so many difficulties with the sleeve anchors. Gave up for today as I had a headache lol. Any help is appreciated, I'm trying to install it on a brick wall if that helpsBe careful when you are trying to set these anchors, most bricks and block walls have voids, when you tighten your anchor it will not work because it doesnt have enough material to grip and secure itself. Its a pain in the ass... you may need different types of screws depending on what you hit as you drill. Always start with a small pilot hole, you can always go bigger but can't go smaller.....
