FAQs

What is the DuoPower made of?

The DuoPower is made of high-quality nylon and plastic.

What materials can the DuoPower be used in?

It can be used in all building materials.

What screw types are compatible?

It's compatible with wood and chipboard screws, as well as stud screws.

How do I choose the right screw length?

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

Can I use the DuoPower for heavy items?

While the DuoPower offers very good hold values, consider the weight of the item and the building material. For very heavy items, consult a professional.

What is the purpose of the red component?

The red component supports the secure expansion and offers additional security to the grey component.

What is the anti-rotation feature?

The serrated anti-rotation feature prevents rotation in the drill hole during installation.

Where can I find different sizes?

The DuoPower is available in various sizes, including 6x50, 8x40, 8x65, and 10x50, among others. Check the product packaging or your local hardware store for available options.

Troubleshooting

Plug rotates in the hole during installation.

Ensure the drill hole is the correct size. If necessary, use a different type of drill bit to create a more secure hold.

Screw doesn't tighten.

Make sure the screw length is correct. The screw should be long enough to penetrate the plug and the fixture, but not too long to bottom out.

Plug slips into the hole.

Use a plug with a rim to prevent it from slipping into the hole or ensure that the hole is not too large.
