FAQs
What materials can I use these screws and plugs in?
The set is suitable for use in drywall, chipboard, plaster, and brick.
Are these screws self-tapping?
Yes, the screws are self-tapping.
What type of screwdriver do I need?
You will need a pozidrive screwdriver.
What if I run out of a certain size?
The set includes a fixed quantity of each size. You may need to purchase additional screws or plugs separately if you run out of a particular size.
Can I use these for outdoor projects?
These screws are made of carbon steel and may not be suitable for long-term outdoor use. Consider using screws specifically designed for outdoor applications.
How do I choose the right size screw and plug?
Select the screw and plug based on the thickness of the item you're attaching and the material you're screwing into. Ensure the plug is rated for the load it will bear.
What if the screw is too long?
If the screw is too long, it may protrude from the back of the material. In this case, use a shorter screw from the set, or if that is not possible, use a washer.
Troubleshooting
Screw won't tighten
Ensure you are using the correct size screw and plug. The hole might be too large; consider using a larger plug or a different type of fastener for the application.
Plug spins in the hole
The hole might be too large. Try using a longer screw or filling the hole with a suitable filler before reinserting the plug.
Screw head strips
Use the correct size and type of screwdriver (Pozidrive). Apply firm and even pressure while driving the screw.

- Insertion: Insert the wall plug into the pre-drilled hole or directly into the material if self-tapping.

Care: Store the screws and plugs in a dry environment. Keep them organized to easily find the size you need. Ensure screws are not over-tightened to prevent damage to the material.
