Frame Fixings – Carbon Steel – Residential & Commercial Use

Product Overview

Experience the strength and reliability of high-performance nylon frame fixings, measuring 10mm in diameter and 100mm in length. Perfectly designed for heavy-duty applications, these fixings are ideal for securing window and door frames, timber battens, and various construction elements into masonry or concrete. With an extended length, they offer deeper embedment, ensuring secure anchorage in thicker materials.

Features & Benefits

• Material Composition: Crafted from high-quality nylon paired with a zinc-plated carbon steel screw, offering both strength and corrosion resistance.
• Design: The expanding sleeve profile ensures consistent engagement and a secure hold in dense materials.
• Performance: Controlled expansion delivers a superior grip without causing substrate cracking.
• Ease of Use: Pre-assembled for fast and accurate installation through frames and battens.
• Durability: Resistant to moisture, ageing, and temperature variations, ensuring long-term service.
• Load Suitability: Ideal for deep heavy-duty frame fixing applications.

Applications

• Window and Door Frames: Securely fixing reinforced or deep-profile frames into masonry.
• Timber Battens: Anchoring battens or subframes to thicker wall structures.
• Structural Supports: Fixing heavier subframes or channels with deep penetration.
• Service Installations: Mounting heavier-duty brackets or rail supports.

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: Excess 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.

FAQs

• What materials are these fixings suitable for? These fixings are ideal for masonry and concrete applications.
• Can these fixings be used outdoors? Yes, they conform to corrosion resistance standards for indoor and sheltered outdoor use.
• How do I ensure the best performance? Ensure the borehole is clean and correctly sized for optimal expansion and grip.
