Abstract

A toggle fixing for fixing to a panel which is accessible only from one side. The toggle fixing has a crosspiece and a strip which is flexible and, as a result, pivotally connected to the crosspiece and on which a sleeve is displaceable in the direction of the crosspiece. The sleeve is provided with a screw hole, so that a screw cannot be pushed through but rather needs to be screwed through the sleeve in order that it can be screwed into the crosspiece. The sleeve relieves the crosspiece of an axial force of the screw.
