How to use
To install the Koelner FIX expansion plug, first drill a hole into the base material using a 6mm masonry drill bit, ensuring the hole depth is slightly greater than the length of the plug. Clear any dust or debris from the hole to ensure a proper fit. Insert the plug into the hole until it is flush with the surface. Once the plug is positioned, screw the integrated straight hook into the plug until it is securely tightened against the wall surface.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that the substrate is solid, such as concrete or solid brick
- Ensure the drill bit diameter matches the plug size exactly
- Check the weight of the item to be mounted to ensure it falls within light-duty limits
Usage recommendations
For optimal holding power, always ensure the drill hole is clean and free of drilling dust before inserting the plug. Use a manual screwdriver to tighten the hook to prevent over-tightening and potential damage to the plug or the substrate.
