FAQs

What materials are these fixings compatible with?

These fixings are designed for use with gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fiberboard.

What size screws should I use?

Use wood, sheet metal, and chipboard screws from 4 to 5 mm thickness.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

No, a standard screwdriver or bit is all that's required.

Can I reuse these fixings?

No, these fixings are not designed for reuse, especially if screws are removed.

How do I install the fixing?

For PDM, simply screw it in. The sharp thread enables a secure, positive fit fixing. For the GKM variant, pre-drill a hole and screw the fixing in.

What can I use these fixings for?

They are suitable for fixing lights, electrical installations, fitting accessories, shelves, pictures and mirrors.

What is the load-bearing capacity?

The product description mentions achieving high load-bearing capacity, but specific load ratings are not provided here. Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's specifications for detailed load capacity information.

Troubleshooting

Fixing spins in the plasterboard during installation.

Ensure the pilot hole (if required) is the correct size. Try a different fixing or use a different installation point.

Screw does not tighten properly.

Check if the screw is compatible and correctly sized. Ensure the fixing is fully seated and not stripped. If needed, try a different screw or fixing.

Fixing fails to hold the weight of the object.

Check the weight capacity of the fixing. Use more fixings or consider heavier-duty fixings for heavier items. Ensure the plasterboard is in good condition and not damaged.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Quick and easy installation with no pre-drilling required.
Provides a strong and secure hold in plasterboard and gypsum fiberboard.
Compatible with a variety of screw types and sizes.
Uses standard screwdrivers for installation, eliminating the need for special tools.
Creates a flush finish that is visually appealing.

Cons

Not suitable for applications requiring screw removal and anchor reuse.
May not be ideal for very heavy objects exceeding the load-bearing capacity.
Requires careful alignment during installation to ensure proper fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: For the PDM variant, position the fixing at the desired location on the plasterboard. Using a standard screwdriver, drive the fixing directly into the plasterboard until the head is flush with the surface. For the GKM variant, pre-drill a hole and screw the fixing in.
Screw Selection: Choose screws of the appropriate length and diameter (4-5 mm) to match the item being fixed.
Compatibility: Ensure the fixings are used only with gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fiberboard.
Care: Avoid overloading the fixings. Do not overtighten screws, as this could damage the plasterboard or the fixing itself.
