Baks KR8/4x60 Expansion Plug 8mm x 60mm

The Baks KR8/4x60 expansion plug is a high-quality fastening component engineered for secure and stable anchoring in a variety of construction materials. Measuring 8 mm in diameter and 60 mm in length, this plug is designed to provide optimal grip, ensuring that fixtures remain firmly in place over time. Each pack contains 100 pieces, offering a practical solution for both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable hardware for their mounting needs.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this expansion plug is its robust design, which facilitates a strong mechanical bond within the substrate. Its geometry is optimized to prevent rotation during installation, allowing for efficient and precise mounting. The material composition ensures durability and resistance to environmental factors, making it a dependable choice for long-term structural integrity in various building applications.

Suitable for

• Mounting electrical components and cable management systems
• Securing lightweight shelving and wall fixtures
• General construction and renovation projects
• Installation in solid masonry and concrete surfaces

When it may not be suitable

This expansion plug is not intended for use in hollow materials where the plug cannot achieve proper expansion. It is also not recommended for heavy-duty structural loads that exceed the technical capacity of an 8 mm plastic anchor.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 8 mm
• Length: 60 mm
• Material: High-grade plastic
• Quantity per pack: 100 pieces

How to use

To install the Baks expansion plug, first drill a hole into the base material using an 8 mm drill bit, ensuring the hole depth is slightly longer than the plug itself. Clear any dust or debris from the hole to ensure a secure fit. Insert the plug into the hole until it is flush with the surface. Finally, drive the appropriate screw through the fixture and into the plug, which will cause the anchor to expand and lock firmly against the walls of the hole.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the compatibility of the plug diameter with your drill bit size
• Ensure the substrate material is suitable for expansion-type anchors
• Check the load-bearing requirements of your specific project

Usage recommendations: Always use a drill bit of the exact diameter specified to ensure the plug provides maximum holding power. Avoid over-tightening the screw, as this may compromise the integrity of the expansion mechanism.
