FAQs

What size drill bit do I need?

You need a 10 mm drill bit.

What is the correct screw length to use?

The required screw length is the plug length + fixture thickness + 1x the screw diameter.

Can I use the DuoPower in drywall?

Yes, the DuoPower is suitable for use in plasterboard (drywall).

What materials is the DuoPower made of?

The grey component is made of high-quality nylon, and the red component is made of plastic.

Can I use DuoPower for outdoor applications?

Yes, the Fischer DuoPower can be used in exterior applications, but ensure the screw is suitable for outdoor use.

What is the weight capacity of the DuoPower?

The weight capacity varies depending on the building material and the screw used. Please refer to the manufacturer's specifications for specific load ratings.

Can I reuse the DuoPower?

It is generally not recommended to reuse the DuoPower once it has been installed, as the expansion mechanism may be compromised.

Troubleshooting

Anchor spins in the hole during screw insertion.

Ensure the drill hole is the correct diameter (10mm). If the hole is too large, use a larger anchor or fill the hole with an appropriate filler before re-drilling and inserting the DuoPower.

The fixture feels loose after installation.

Check the screw length. It may be too short or too long. Adjust the screw length to ensure it properly engages with the DuoPower and secures the fixture.

Anchor won't go into the hole.

Make sure the hole is clean and free of debris. Use a hammer if necessary to gently tap the anchor into place, but be careful not to damage it. If the hole is too small, redrill with a 10mm drill bit.
