Usage
The Fischer DuoPower 8x65 mm anchor is designed for secure and versatile fixings in a wide range of building materials, including solid, hollow, and panel substrates. Ideal for mounting shelves, cabinets, lighting fixtures, and more.
Advantages
- Dual-component nylon construction automatically adapts to the building material for optimal hold.
- Suitable for both solid (expansion) and hollow (folding/knotting) applications.
- Serrated anti-rotation feature prevents plug rotation during screw installation.
- Narrow rim design stops the anchor from slipping into the drill hole during fitting.
- The greater anchorage depth allows reliable use in problematic or thick base materials such as aerated concrete or bridging plaster layers.
Specifications
- Made from high-quality two-component nylon for mechanical strength and durability.
- Suits wood screws or chipboard screws; recommended screw diameter: approximately 6 mm; compatible with pre-positioned and push-through installation methods[1][3][5].
- Total anchor length: 65 mm; diameter: 8 mm; supplied in packs of 50 pieces[1].
- Adapts expansion mode according to substrate: spreads in solid materials, folds/knotting in hollow sections[1][3][5]. Provides high load values per manufacturer’s technical data—e.g., up to approximately 97 kg pull-out load per fixing in standard concrete with safety factors applied (values may vary by substrate)[6].
How it works
The DuoPower plug uses a combination of hard and soft nylon components that automatically activate expansion, folding, or knotting functions based on the wall type. Inserted into a pre-drilled hole with a suitable screw, it secures fixtures firmly by adapting its shape to maximize grip within each specific substrate[1][3][5].
