Troubleshooting

Fixing spins in the hole during installation.

Ensure the drill hole is the correct diameter and the ribs on the shaft are gripping the material. You may need to use a different drill bit or try a different location.

The item is not securely held.

Check that the fixing is fully expanded and that the screw is tightened correctly. Ensure the fixing is installed in a suitable material.

The fixing is too short for the application.

Ensure that the fixing length is suitable for the thickness of your dot and dab wall and the item being mounted. Consider a longer fixing if necessary.
