Molly (fastener)
A molly or molly bolt, commonly misspelled moly, is a formerly trademarked name for a specialized fastener used with drywall. Larger sizes permit reasonably heavy objects, such as shelving, flatscreen TV mounts or central heating radiators to be attached to drywall in locations where there is no stud behind the drywall. For heavy objects, multiple molly bolts may be required.

Famous quotes containing the word molly:
“Her voice is thin and her moan is high,
And her cackling laugh or her barking cold
Bring terror to the young and old.
O Molly, Molly, Molly Means
Lean is the ghost of Molly Means.”
—Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)
