FAQs

What is the main purpose of the MasonMate Type E Nylon Plug?

These plugs are designed to create a secure anchor point in walls and other materials for fixing various items like wall lights, shelving units, and cupboards, especially when used with appropriate screws like coach screws.

What size drill bit do I need to use?

You will need a 12mm drill bit to create the anchor hole.

What is the minimum depth the hole needs to be?

The hole must be a minimum depth of 75mm to ensure a secure hold.

Can I use any type of screw with these plugs?

No, these plugs are designed for screw gauges from 18 to 24G and screw sizes ranging from 8.0 to 10.0mm. They are often used with coach screws.

Are these suitable for very heavy loads?

These plugs are intended for medium-duty applications. For very heavy loads or structural support, professional advice and different anchoring solutions should be considered.

What does the 'rimless design' mean?

The rimless design means the plug sits flush within the drilled hole without an external rim, providing a cleaner aesthetic and simpler installation.

How many plugs are included in this pack?

This specific pack contains 100 MasonMate Type E Nylon Plugs.

Troubleshooting

Plug does not grip securely

Verify the hole diameter is exactly 12mm and the depth is at least 75mm. Ensure the screw size and gauge are within the specified compatibility range.

Plug is difficult to insert

Ensure the drilled hole is clean and free of debris. Check if the drill bit used created a precise 12mm diameter hole. Avoid forcing the plug.

Screw will not engage with the plug

Confirm that the screw's thread and diameter match the plug's specifications (18-24G, 8.0-10.0mm). The screw may be too thin or too thick.

Plugs break during insertion

This can occur if the hole is too small or if excessive force is used. Ensure the correct 12mm drill bit is used and insertion is smooth.
