• Plug length: 40 mm
• Material: Durable plastic
• Quantity: 25 pieces
• Application surface: Masonry and concrete

How to use

To use these wall plugs, first drill a hole into the masonry or concrete surface using a drill bit that matches the 6 mm diameter of the plug. Ensure the hole is slightly deeper than the 40 mm length of the plug to allow for full insertion. Clear any dust or debris from the hole to ensure a proper fit. Insert the plug into the hole, tapping it gently with a hammer until it is flush with the wall surface. Finally, drive the appropriate screw through your fixture and into the plug until it is firmly secured.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the drill bit size matches the 6 mm plug diameter.
• Ensure the wall material is suitable for expansion-type plugs.
• Check the screw size to ensure compatibility with the 6 mm plug.

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate safety gear, such as goggles, when drilling into masonry to protect against flying debris. Ensure the hole is drilled straight to maintain maximum holding strength.
