FAQs

What thickness of worktop can these connectors be used with?

These connectors are specifically designed for 22mm thick worktops.

Do I need special tools to install them?

You will need a router to create the slots and a 4mm Hex driver bit (often supplied with the connectors) for tensioning. No other specialized tools are required.

Can I use these for granite or stone worktops?

These connectors are primarily designed for composite or laminate worktops. Using them on stone may require professional assessment and potentially different fixing methods.

How many connectors are in a pack?

The PPQT10.858 model comes as a pack of 3 worktop connectors.

Can I tension these with just one hand?

Yes, the Zipclip holding clip allows for secure retention in the routered slot, enabling one-handed tensioning, which is very useful in confined spaces.

What is the length of the connector?

The connectors have an industry-standard length of 164mm.

Troubleshooting

Connector not gripping worktop

Ensure the Hex driver is fully inserted and turning clockwise. Check that the worktops are properly seated against each other and that the routered slots are clean and to the correct depth.

Zipclip not holding securely

Verify that the Zipclip's flexible wings are properly seated in the routered slot. Ensure the slot is not damaged or too large.

Difficulty inserting the Hex driver

Make sure you are using the correct 4mm Hex driver bit and that it is aligned properly with the drive socket on the connector.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Ensure your worktops are 22mm thick.
Route a slot in each worktop end according to the connector's dimensions. Typically, this involves two parallel slots connected at one end.
Insert one Zipbolt connector into the slot of each worktop end, ensuring the Zipclip is engaged.
Bring the two worktops together.
Using the supplied 4mm Hex driver bit, turn the screw on the exposed end of the Zipbolt connector. This engages the internal gears and pulls the worktops tightly together.

Compatibility:

Designed for 22mm thick worktops.
Compatible with standard worktop jigs due to their 164mm industry standard length.
Requires a router and appropriate jig or template for creating the necessary slots.

Care:

Keep the internal gears clean from dust and debris. A light brushing or compressed air can be used.
Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Wipe with a slightly damp cloth if necessary, and dry immediately.
