The Rawlplug Nylon Self-Drill Plasterboard Fixings are designed for DIYers and professionals looking for a rapid, reliable way to mount items on plasterboard surfaces. Their primary benefit is the ability to install hardware without the time-consuming process of pre-drilling holes, ensuring a fast and secure hold. While they offer excellent versatility and electrical insulation, they are restricted to a maximum fixture thickness of 12mm, meaning they may not be suitable for particularly thick materials or heavy-duty structural loads.

These fixings accommodate a maximum fixture thickness of 12mm. They are compatible with both panhead and countersink screws. To remove, simply unscrew the center fastener, then rotate the nylon fixing counter-clockwise until it exits the wall. Store unused fixings in a dry location to maintain the integrity of the nylon material.
