Troubleshooting
Plug spins in the hole during screw insertion.
Ensure the hole diameter is correct (5mm). If the hole is too large, use a larger plug or fill the hole with a suitable filler before re-drilling.
Screw doesn't tighten.
Check that the screw size is within the recommended range (3.0-4.5mm). Ensure that the screw thread is compatible with the plug. If needed, try a slightly longer screw.
Plug pushes into the wall.
Make sure you are not using too large a hole. The lip of the plug should prevent it from going into the wall. If necessary, use a washer under the screw head to prevent it from going too far.
