Metal cavity fixing The versatile metal cavity fixing with metric screws Curtain rails Shelves BUILDING MATERIALS Gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fibreboards Cavity floor slabs Light building boards made of wood wool Chipboard Plywood ADVANTAGES APPLICATIONS FUNCTIONING Due to the extensive product range, the is suitable for board building materials with a thickness of 3-0mm making it suitable for a number of different applications. The metric internal thread allows the attachment to be removed and refitted several times. The s expanding arms open to create a large surface area which can support a high load-bearing capacity. The claws around the neck of the fixing penetrate the board building material and prevent it from rotating whilst being installed. Pictures Lighting Shelves Towel rails Mirror cabinets Curtain rails TV consoles Sub-structures The metal cavity fixing is suitable for pre-positioned installation. To achieve the very best expansion in the cavity the fixing should be selected based on the thickness of the board building material. During installation, the arms expand open and press onto the reverse side of the board. It is recommended that the installation tool be used to install the fixings If using a battery operated screwdriver or screwdriver for installation, the pre-assembled screws must be removed first. The item for attachment should then be placed over the pre-installed shell of the fixing, install the screws and expand the fixing. This reduces the chance of the fixing 2 INSTALLATION 3

K/KD/KDH/KM Cavity & spring toggle The cavity fixing for different board thicknesses and large usage lengths Ceiling lamps Wash basins BUILDING MATERIALS CHARACTERISTICS Gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fibreboards Cavity floor slabs made from bricks and concrete Chipboard Plywood ADVANTAGES APPLICATIONS FUNCTIONING The long metric screw in the toggle fixings KD and KDH allows it to be used in different board thicknesses and attachment thicknesses offering maximum flexibility. The integrated spring of the KD 3+4 and KDH 3+4automatically expands the toggle for a simple installation. The wide transition beams ensure a good load distribution. This achieves a high load-bearing capacity. The nylon gravity toggle K4 allows for the use of standard wood and chipboard screws. Pictures Lighting Light shelves Towel rails Mirror cabinets Light cabinets Wash basins and urinals (KM 10) The KD/KDH /6/8 gravity toggles and KD/KDH 3/4 spring toggle are suitable for pre-positioned installation. When pushed through the drill hole the spring toggle expands by force behind the board. When the gravity toggle is pushed through the drill hole the cross-piece tilts back on its self behind the board. The KM 10 is specially suited to fixing wash basins and urinals in to cavity walls. No special installation tools required Please note that the KD -8, KDH to 8 and KM10 cannot be installed pointing downwards i.e. floor INSTALLATION

PD Board fixing The expansion plug for fixings in gypsum plasterboard, gypsum fibreboard and wooden panels Towel rails Small shelves BUILDING MATERIALS CHARACTERISTICS Gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fibreboards Wooden boards MDF boards Multiplex boards OSB boards Plywood boards Chipboard Wood core plywood boards ADVANTAGES APPLICATIONS FUNCTIONING The operating principle of the fixing allows for use in various board thicknesses including in low cavity depths. This provides great flexibility. The special fixing geometry with a nylon cone ensures a high tightening torque that can be identified immediately. This offers a high level of installation safety. The longitudinal ribs prevent the fixing from rotating in the drill hole, thus allowing for a reliable installation. Pictures Lighting Shelves Towel rails Mirror cabinets Curtain rails The board fixing PD is suitable for pre-positioned installation. Use rotary drilling to create the drill hole. When the screw is tightened, the plastic cone is pulled into the sleeve and expands the fixing. Use full-thread screws, or alternatively, the part of the screw without thread may not be longer than the thickness of the item being attached. Must be used with chipboard screws. Do not use screws with double-start threads. INSTALLATION 8

PDM /PDN Board fixing The self-tapping metal and nylon fixings for gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fibreboard Wall lamps Speaker cabinets ADVANTAGES The PDM / PDN can be used in gypsum plasterboard and gypsum fibreboard. The sharp, self-tapping thread gives a secure, positive fixing. This achieves a high load-bearing capacity. The cross-drive recess means that a standard screwdriver or bit can be used. No special setting tool is required. The short fixing length means that only a small amount of space is required behind the board. INSTALLATION BUILDING MATERIALS Gypsum fibreboard Gypsum plasterboard APPLICATIONS Pictures Lighting Electrical installations Fitting accessories FUNCTIONING The PDM and PDN are suitable for pre-positioned installation. The self-drilling fixings screw into the plasterboard with a positive fit. Flush installation in board materials. Overtightening the fixing should be avoided. Therefore the installation torque should be limited when using a battery operated screwdriver. Adapted for wood, selftapping and chipboard screws of4.0mm Pre-drill with a Ø 8mm drill bit when using gypsum fibreboard and double-planked gypsum plasterboard. Not suitable for tiled plasterboard.
