FAQs

What type of cable are these clips designed for?

These clips are specifically designed for 1.5mm² Twin and Earth cable.

What is the inner diameter of these clips?

The inner diameter of the clips is approximately 8mm, suitable for 1.5mm² cable.

Can I use these clips outdoors?

Yes, the clips feature a tough, shock-resistant body and are suitable for most indoor or outdoor DIY jobs.

How many clips are included in a pack?

Each pack contains 100 clips.

What material are the nails made of?

The nails are made of high carbon steel.

Are these clips suitable for solid brick walls?

They can be used on solid surfaces, but for very hard materials like brick or concrete, pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended for easier and more secure installation.

Troubleshooting

Nail does not fully penetrate the surface.

Ensure the surface is not excessively hard. For brick, concrete, or very dense wood, pre-drilling a small pilot hole slightly smaller than the nail diameter can help. Use a firm, direct hammer strike.

Clip feels loose after installation.

Remove the clip and check for any damage to the nail or clip body. Ensure the surface material is sound. If the surface is crumbling or soft, consider using wall anchors appropriate for the material before re-inserting the nail.

Clip does not fit the cable.

Verify that the cable is indeed 1.5mm² Twin and Earth. These clips have a specific inner diameter (approx. 8mm) and are not designed for thicker or thinner cables. Using the wrong size clip can lead to poor security or damage to the cable insulation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Cost-effective pack of 100 clips.
  • Durable construction with shock-resistant body.
  • Secure fastening with high-impact steel nails.
  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
  • Designed for common 1.5mm² Twin and Earth cable.

Cons

  • Limited to 1.5mm² cable size.
  • White colour may show dirt in very dusty environments.
  • Nails may require a pilot hole in very hard surfaces.
  • Not intended for heavy-duty or industrial applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, place the cable clip over the 1.5mm² Twin and Earth cable. Position the clip on the desired surface (e.g., wall, skirting board) where the cable needs to be secured. Using a hammer, gently but firmly strike the nail head to drive it into the surface. Ensure the nail penetrates sufficiently for a secure hold. For harder surfaces like brick or concrete, a pilot hole may be beneficial.

Compatibility: These clips are specifically designed for 1.5mm² Twin and Earth cable, which typically has an outer diameter compatible with the 8mm inner diameter of the clip. They are not recommended for use with larger gauge cables or different cable types.

Care: The clips require minimal care. Periodically check that they remain secure and that the cable is not being unduly stressed. Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth if they become dusty. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
