FAQs

What size drill bit should I use?

Use a 6mm drill bit.

What materials are these wall plugs suitable for?

They are suitable for concrete, solid brick, and similar materials.

Can I use these plugs for heavy items?

While these plugs are strong, extremely heavy items may require additional support. Consider the weight of the item and the material of the wall.

How do I remove a wall plug?

You can remove the plug by unscrewing the screw and pulling the plug out with pliers or a similar tool. Alternatively, you can push the plug into the wall (if the wall material allows).

What screw size should I use?

The screw size will depend on the item you are mounting. Ensure the screw diameter is compatible with the plug and the length is appropriate for the item and wall thickness.

What is the red color for?

The red color helps with easy identification.

Troubleshooting

Wall plug spins in the hole during screw insertion.

Ensure the drill hole is the correct size and clean. If the hole is too large, consider using a larger plug or filling the hole with an appropriate filler before re-drilling.

Screw does not tighten properly.

Make sure the screw is the correct size and type for the plug and the fixture. If the screw is too short, it won't grip the plug properly. If the screw is too long, it may bottom out before tightening the fixture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Drilling: Use a 6mm drill bit suitable for the material you are working with (e.g., masonry bit for concrete).
Hole Depth: Drill the hole to a depth that accommodates the full length of the wall plug, ensuring the plug is flush with the wall surface.
Insertion: Insert the Fischer Contract Wall Plug into the drilled hole.
Screw Insertion: Align the item you are mounting with the hole and insert the appropriate screw. Tighten the screw until the item is securely fixed.

Compatibility: The plugs are compatible with various screw types and suitable for use in concrete, solid brick, and other similar materials. Ensure you are using the correct screw length to avoid damaging the wall or the fixture.

Care: No specific care is required. Store unused plugs in a dry place.
