Mounting (elfa)

[Woundedknee]

Hi, suitable screw for mounting the Elfa tracks on drywall + osb? Will not be able to hit the studs everywhere, any tips are greatly appreciated.

Woodscrew in appropriate size.

Wood screw in appropriate size.

Is that enough? Does it hold sufficiently in OSB? Or do I need to use a plug?

We don't know how many gadgets you're planning to hang up. You'll probably get a decent hold in the OSB board. Then, the screw holes on the rail are fairly close together.

Then, the screw holes on the rail are likely quite close together.

Thank you for the help, you're probably right.

If you're going to hang something extra heavy, use molly expanders for double plasterboard.
Regular plastic plugs are probably worse than wood screws in the OSB board.

Is it enough? Does it hold well in OSB? Or do I need to use a plug?

Wood screws, no plug or Molly, support substantial loads.
