FAQs
What is the recommended weight limit for these fixings?
The weight limit depends on the specific product. Always refer to the product packaging for the correct weight limit.
What tools do I need to install the Plasplugs Super Toggle Fixing Pack?
You will need a drill, a drill bit of the correct size (specified on the packaging), a screwdriver, and potentially a level.

What if the wall is thicker than 15mm?

How do I remove the fixings if I need to?
You can remove the fixings by unscrewing the item, then either pushing the toggle through the wall or cutting it off inside the cavity (if accessible).
Are these fixings suitable for outdoor use?
The product description does not specify suitability for outdoor use; consider rust-resistant options if using outdoors.
Troubleshooting
Fixing spins in the hole during tightening.
Ensure the hole size is correct. If the hole is too large, consider using a larger toggle fixing or filling the hole with a suitable filler.
Fixing doesn't tighten properly.
Make sure the expanding wings have deployed correctly inside the cavity. Ensure the item being mounted isn't too thick, preventing the toggle from fully expanding.
