Nylon Hollow Wall Fixings 8 x 40 mm with Screw - Set of 25

Would you like to hang something on a hollow wall or plaster wall? Then use Wovar's hollow wall fixings. This hollow wall plug, also called umbrella plug or hollow wall anchor, makes it very easy to attach material to a hollow wall. The 8 x 40 mm hollow wall fixings can be used for hollow walls from 12 to 18 mm thick.

How does it work?

First drill a hole in the hollow wall or board with a 10 mm thick hardwood drill. Next, slightly press on the bottom of the plug, so that it becomes elongated. As a result, the hollow wall plug turns into a 'normal' wall plug and can be pushed through the hole in the wall. Does pushing alone not seem to do the trick? Then tap the fixing slightly with a hammer. The wide collar prevents the plug from falling through the hole in the wall. Then tap the plug with a small pin or screw, so that the plug expands slightly on the other side of the wall. This will cause it to clamp to the back of the wall.

Place a 3.5 mm thick full-threaded screw in the fixing and tighten it, so that the hollow wall plug is completely fixed to the wall. Use the length of the screw to determine how thick the material to be attached can be. The plug has anti-rotation wings, so it cannot rotate. In connection with the load-bearing capacity of the plug, it is recommended to attach material with a maximum thickness of 5 mm.
