Frame Fixings – Carbon Steel – Commercial & Industrial Use

Product Overview

These industrial-grade nylon frame fixings, with a 10mm shank diameter and 160mm length, are expertly designed for heavy-duty applications. They provide secure fixing of window and door frames, timber battens, and other deep construction elements into masonry or concrete surfaces.

Features & Benefits

• Material Composition: High-quality nylon plug and zinc-plated carbon steel screw ensure strength and corrosion resistance.
• Design: Expanding sleeve profile offers consistent engagement and secure hold in dense materials.
• Performance: Controlled expansion delivers superior grip without cracking the substrate.
• Ease of Use: Pre-assembled fixing allows for fast and accurate installation.
• Durability: Resistant to moisture, ageing, and temperature variations.
• Load Suitability: Ideal for maximum-depth heavy-duty frame fixing applications.

Applications

• Window and Door Frames: Ideal for fixing frames into deep or multi-layered masonry structures.
• Timber Battens: Perfect for anchoring thick or through-fixed battens into solid walls.
• Structural Supports: Suitable for deep structural fixings in dense masonry.
• Service Installations: Excellent for mounting heavy mechanical or electrical supports requiring maximum embedment.

Installation Guidance

• Drill Hole Preparation: Drill a 10mm diameter hole to the full depth of the fixing.
• Clean Borehole: Remove dust and debris to ensure full sleeve expansion.
• Insert Assembly: Push the pre-assembled fixing through the frame and into the drilled hole.
• Drive Screw: Tighten until the plug expands completely and the head seats flush.
• Avoid Over-Tightening: Excessive torque can reduce expansion efficiency and compromise grip.

Compliance & Performance

• Material Specification: Nylon PA6 plug with zinc-plated carbon steel screw.
• Corrosion Resistance: Conforms to EN ISO 9227 for indoor and sheltered outdoor use.
• Thermal Stability: Maintains performance between -20°C and +80°C.
• Important Note: Ensure substrate integrity and correct drill diameter before installation.
