The Fischer 524864 SX Green Expansion Plug is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals seeking a reliable anchoring solution for a variety of building materials, including solid and hollow types. Its key benefit lies in its 4-way expansion system, ensuring optimal force distribution and high load-bearing capacities with minimal risk of damage to surfaces like tiles and plaster due to its expansion-free plug neck. A minor caveat is that screws are not included, requiring a separate purchase.

The load-bearing capacity depends on the specific building material and the screw used. Refer to the technical data sheet for detailed information on load capacities for different materials like concrete, brick, and gypsum block.
No, screws are not included with this product. You will need to purchase suitable screws separately, ensuring they match the plug's dimensions and the requirements of your application.
The green SX plug is made from at least 50% renewable raw materials and offers the same high load-bearing performance as the traditional grey version, providing a more sustainable option.
While the plug itself is durable, its suitability for outdoor use depends on the specific environmental conditions and the materials being fastened. For critical outdoor applications, consult Fischer's product range for specialized outdoor anchors.
The minimum recommended drill hole depth is 70 mm.
It is suitable for autoclaved aerated concrete, brick, concrete, and gypsum block.
Drill the correct size hole, clean it, insert the plug until the rim is flush, and then insert and tighten the screw. The pronounced rim prevents slippage, and the expansion mechanism provides holding power.
Ensure the drill hole diameter and depth are correct as per specifications. Check that the correct screw size and type are being used. Verify the building material is suitable for this type of anchor.
Ensure the plug's pronounced rim is correctly positioned against the surface. If the hole is slightly oversized, consider using a slightly larger diameter plug or a different anchoring method.
This is typically caused by excessive expansion force. Ensure the expansion-free plug neck feature is functioning correctly and that the screw is not overtightened. Verify the material's suitability for expansion plugs.
