FAQs

What size drill bit should I use?

Use a drill bit size appropriate for the screw you are using.

Can these plugs be used in plasterboard?

Yes, these plugs are suitable for plasterboard. Ensure the hole is drilled correctly.

Are screws included?

No, screws are not included with the Rawlplug Uno Universal Wall Plugs. You must purchase screws separately.

What is the maximum load these plugs can support?

Load capacity depends on the base material and screw size. Always refer to screw and application guidelines.

Can I reuse these plugs?

It is not recommended to reuse wall plugs once they have been used. For safety, replace used plugs with new ones.

What materials are these plugs suitable for?

These plugs are suitable for solid and hollow base materials, including concrete, brick, plasterboard, and more.

How do I choose the right screw size?

The screw size should be appropriate for the item being fixed and the depth of the plug. A screw that is too short may not provide a secure hold.

Troubleshooting

Plug spins in the hole during screw insertion.

Ensure the drilled hole is the correct size. If necessary, use a slightly larger screw or fill the hole with a suitable filler before reinserting the plug.

Screw does not tighten securely.

Check if the screw is too short for the depth of the plug. If so, replace the screw with a longer one. Also, confirm that the plug is fully expanded.

Plug slips into the hole.

Make sure the drilled hole is not too large. If the hole is oversized, use a plug with a larger diameter or fill the hole with filler material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
