Frame Fixings – Carbon Steel – Residential & Commercial Use

Product Overview

These Heavy Duty Nylon Frame Fixings feature a 10mm shank diameter and 140mm length, perfect for securely fixing window and door frames, timber battens, and deep construction elements into masonry or concrete. The extended plug length ensures increased anchorage depth, providing a secure hold for large or reinforced frames. This 10 x 140mm variant is particularly suited for oversized installations where greater holding capacity and long-term stability are crucial.

Features & Benefits

• Material Composition: High-quality nylon plug paired with a zinc-plated carbon steel screw for enhanced strength and corrosion resistance.
• Design: The expanding sleeve profile ensures consistent engagement and secure hold in dense materials.
• Performance: Controlled expansion provides superior grip without damaging the substrate.
• Ease of Use: Pre-assembled fixings allow for fast, accurate installation through frames and battens.
• Durability: Resistant to moisture, aging, and temperature variations for long-term use.
• Load Suitability: Ideal for oversized heavy-duty frame fixing applications.

Applications

• Window and Door Frames: Excellent for fixing oversized or reinforced frames into deep masonry.
• Timber Battens: Suitable for large battens or multi-layer cladding supports.
• Structural Supports: Perfect for anchoring large frame assemblies or industrial subframes.
• Service Installations: Effective for fixing long-span mounting channels or heavy conduit systems.

Installation Guidance

• Drill Hole Preparation: Drill a 10mm diameter hole to the full depth of the fixing.
• Clean Borehole: Remove dust and debris to allow full sleeve expansion.
• Insert Assembly: Push the pre-assembled fixing through the frame 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.
