The Rawlplug Nylon Expansion Plug is a durable and versatile wall plug designed for secure anchoring in a variety of solid base materials such as concrete, brick, and stone. Featuring anti-rotation fins and a two-way expansion mechanism, this plug ensures a strong, stable, and long-lasting hold for screws and fixings. Ideal for both professional tradespeople and DIY use.


Key Features:

  1. Anti-Rotation Fins:
    Prevent the plug from spinning in the hole when the screw is driven in, ensuring firm installation.
  2. Two-Way Expansion Mechanism:
    Provides strong and secure anchorage in solid materials by expanding against the inner walls of the drilled hole.
  3. Engineered Grip Design:
    Enhances holding power and resists pull-out forces.
  4. Nylon Construction:
    Made from high-quality, durable nylon, which resists ageing, rotting, and environmental conditions better than plastic plugs.
  5. Compatible Screws:
    Typically used with size 10 screws (5.0mm–6.0mm diameter).

Applications:

  1. Mounting shelves, brackets, light fixtures
  2. Securing electrical boxes or sockets
  3. Installing curtain poles, blinds, and handrails
  4. Wall-mounting cabinets or frames

For use in:

  1. Concrete
  2. Solid brick
  3. Stone
  4. Blockwork

A: A 7mm masonry drill bit is recommended for the brown plug.
