FAQs
What materials can these plugs be used in?
These plugs are designed for use in solid substrates such as brick and concrete.

Use screws that are compatible with the plug size (12mm x 60mm).
How do I choose the correct drill bit size?
Refer to the product packaging for the recommended drill bit size for your specific plug.
Can I use these plugs outdoors?
These plugs can be used outdoors, but ensure the screw is suitable for outdoor use and is rust-resistant.
What if the plug doesn't fit in the hole?

What should I do if the screw strips the plug?
Remove the screw and plug. Use a new plug, and ensure the screw is the correct size and type.
