FAQs
What type of screws can I use with the Duo Blade?
The Duo Blade is compatible with wood, metal, and chipboard screws from 4 to 5 mm in diameter.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
No, you only need a PZ 2 drive screwdriver or a standard screwdriver with a PZ 2 bit.
Can I use the Duo Blade for heavy items?
The Duo Blade is suitable for a wide range of applications. For heavier items, use multiple Duo Blades or consider alternative fixing methods designed for heavier loads.
What is the maximum screw diameter?
The maximum screw diameter is 5 mm.
How do I remove the Duo Blade if needed?
The Duo Blade can be removed by unscrewing the screw and pulling the fixing out of the plasterboard. The hole will remain, and you may need to use a filler if you are concerned about aesthetics.
What materials is the Duo Blade suitable for?
The Duo Blade is suitable for use with plasterboard.
Troubleshooting
Fixing spins in the hole during screw insertion.
Ensure the pilot hole is correctly sized, and the Duo Blade is properly seated. If the hole is too large, consider using a larger fixing or filling the hole with a suitable filler before re-drilling.
Screw does not tighten or hold the fixture.
Verify the screw type and size are compatible. Ensure the screw is not too short or too long. If the item is heavy, use more Duo Blades.
