Extended Product Information

FAQs

What size pipe does this clip fit?

This nail clip is designed specifically for 10mm diameter pipes, including both plastic and copper types.

What material is the clip made from?

The product information does not specify the material, but it is designed for robust fixing in plumbing applications.

Does the pack come with screws?

No, the pack contains 50 nail clips. Screws for securing the clips to timber are not included and must be sourced separately.

Can these be used on brick or plasterboard?

These nail clips are designed for fixing to timber substrates only. For other materials, appropriate fixings would be required.

Are these suitable for exposed pipework?

While they provide a secure fixing, their primary design is for concealed pipework. The white colour may not be aesthetically suitable for exposed applications.

How many clips are in a pack?

Each pack contains 50 John Guest Speedfit nail clips.

What is the main advantage of this clip?

The main advantage is its compact design, allowing pipes to be fitted closer together, and its quick screw-in installation method.

Troubleshooting

Clip does not hold pipe securely

Ensure the correct size screw is used and fully tightened into the timber. Verify the pipe is correctly seated within the clip before securing.

Difficulty screwing clip into timber

Pre-drill a small pilot hole in the timber to ease screw insertion. Ensure the timber is sound and not excessively hard.

Pipe is crushed or damaged during installation

Loosen the screw slightly. Ensure the clip is positioned correctly around the pipe, not directly pressing on it. Do not overtighten the screw.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Facilitates closer pipe runs due to its compact nature.
  • Quick and easy installation with a simple screw action.
  • Provides a secure and reliable fixing for pipes.
  • Compatible with a wide range of pipe types and water systems.
  • Durable construction designed for professional use.

Cons

  • Requires a pilot hole or careful screw insertion to avoid pipe damage.
  • Primarily designed for timber substrates.
  • The white colour might be visible if not concealed properly.
  • Sold in packs, which may be more than needed for small jobs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Position the 10mm pipe where it needs to be fixed to the timber.
  2. Place the John Guest Speedfit nail clip over the pipe, aligning the screw hole with the timber surface.
  3. Use an appropriate screw (not included) to secure the clip firmly to the timber. Ensure the screw is driven straight and does not overtighten, which could crush the pipe.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with 10mm plastic pipes (e.g., John Guest Speedfit).
  • Compatible with 10mm copper pipes.
  • Suitable for use with hot and cold water systems.
  • Suitable for central heating pipework.
  • Designed for fixing to timber substrates.

Care:

These clips are designed for permanent installation and require no ongoing maintenance. Ensure they remain free from excessive debris during installation. If the surrounding area needs cleaning, a dry or slightly damp cloth can be used, avoiding harsh chemicals.
