Hammer Fixings – Carbon Steel – Heavy Duty Applications

Product Overview

Discover our professional nylon hammer fixings designed with a 6mm shank diameter and 70mm length. These are perfect for rapid and reliable fixing into masonry, concrete, or blockwork. The combination of a high-strength nylon plug with a zinc-plated drive nail ensures fast installation without the need for screw tightening, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.

Features & Benefits

• Material composition: Nylon plug paired with a zinc-plated carbon steel nail for enhanced strength and corrosion resistance.
• Design: One-piece hammer-in fixing allows for fast and simple installation.
• Performance: Expanding nylon sleeve provides a consistent grip in solid materials.
• Ease of use: Installs directly by hammering through the fixture without pre-assembly.
• Durability: Resistant to moisture, ageing, and temperature variations for reliable service.
• Load suitability: Perfect for heavy fixing applications.

Applications

• Timber battens: Fixing heavy battens or structural supports.
• Cable trunking and conduit: Securing large containment or industrial channels.
• Profiles and channels: Attaching heavy steel or aluminium profiles to solid walls.
• Interior fittings: Suitable for reinforced or load-bearing installations.

Installation Guidance

• Drill hole preparation: Drill a 6mm diameter hole to the required depth using a masonry or SDS bit.
• Clean borehole: Remove debris to enable full plug expansion.
• Insert fixing: Position the fixture and push the fixing through into the drilled hole.
• Hammer in: Drive the nail until the head seats flush, activating plug expansion.
• Avoid overdriving: Excessive impact can deform the plug and reduce holding capacity.

Compliance & Performance

• Material specification: Nylon PA6 plug with zinc-plated carbon steel drive nail.
• Corrosion resistance: Suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor applications.
• Thermal stability: Maintains performance between -20°C and +80°C.
• Important note: Always confirm substrate condition and correct drill size before installation.
