Wall plug with screw Koelner/Rawlplug FIX 8x40 mm, 60 pcs, model K-BK3-FIX08+/60

Koelner/Rawlplug FIX 8x40 mm wall plugs with screws (60 pieces) are plastic expansion anchors designed for fixing fixtures in both solid and hollow building substrates. Each set contains matched plugs and screws sized 8 × 40 mm, intended for general indoor fastening tasks. These anchors provide a straightforward solution for mounting shelving, brackets, cable clips and light fittings where a reliable mechanical hold is required.

Advantages

The FIX 8x40 mm anchors combine a molded plastic plug and a corresponding screw to produce controlled expansion in a variety of base materials. Their design allows stable anchoring in solid walls as well as acceptable performance in hollow blocks and plasterboard when used according to recommended installation depth. Supplied as a pack of 60 paired units, the set is suitable for multiple fixtures and small installation projects, reducing the need for repeated purchases. The standardized 8 mm diameter and 40 mm length support common indoor fastening requirements.

Suitable for

• Mounting shelving and small cabinets to solid and hollow walls
• Fixing light fittings and electrical accessories
• Securing brackets for curtain rails, handrails or signage
• Fixing cable clips, conduit clips and small cable management components

Key specifications

• Plug material: plastic expansion anchor
• Screw and plug diameter: 8 mm
• Overall length: 40 mm
• Pack quantity: 60 paired plugs and screws
• Intended use: indoor fastening in solid and hollow substrates

How to use

Mark the fixing position and drill a hole with an 8 mm drill bit to the required depth. Clean out dust from the drilled hole, insert the plastic plug flush with the surface, then place the fixture and drive the screw until the plug expands and secures in the substrate. For hollow materials or thin panels, ensure the anchor engages correctly and consider using a through-fixing or additional backing if necessary. Follow common safety practices: wear eye protection and select the appropriate drill and driver settings for the wall material.

Usage recommendations

Use these anchors for general indoor fixtures where an 8×40 mm expansion anchor is appropriate. For heavy loads, lightweight plasterboard, or safety-critical installations, verify load capacities for the specific substrate and choose specialized anchors or additional mechanical support if required.
