What does "8-12x1-1/4-inch" mean exactly in "Paulin 8-12x1-1/4-inch Yellow Plastic Anchors"? Does "8" mean "gauge #8"? I don't know how to interpret the remaining numbers. Please help and thank you!

8

(#8-12) Indicates that size 8 through size 12 screws can be used in the plugs. (1 1/4) is indeed the length of the plug. The packaging also recommends a 1/4" hole be used for the plug to be inserted into.
