Those are great for heavy loads but require pretty decent size holes, which can be difficult in old plaster walls. I have plaster and wood lathe construction walls and have had good luck pre-drilling with a 3/16 masonry bit on high speed with no hammer action, then using a course thread wood screw. If I don’t hit lathe going straight in I angle the screw a bit so I do.
