Abstract
A toggle fixing for fixing an article to a thin-walled building component. The toggle fixing includes a crosspiece and a strip which is connected to the crosspiece and serves for holding the crosspiece during mounting. An opening for receiving a screw is formed centrally on the crosspiece, the opening extending along an opening longitudinal axis (LÖ). In order that screws of which the external diameter (DA) is smaller than the internal diameter (DK) of the opening can also be fixed to the crosspiece it is proposed that there be arranged on the crosspiece at least one counterbearing element having a spacing (AW) from the opening longitudinal axis (LÖ) that is less than half the internal diameter (DK) of the opening.
