FAQs

What drill bit size should I use?

A 6mm drill bit is required for the Fischer DuoPower 6mm x 30mm plug.

What materials is the DuoPower suitable for?

The DuoPower is suitable for brick, concrete, and most common building materials.

Can I use different screws with the DuoPower?

While the included screws are optimized for use, you can use compatible wood and chipboard screws, as well as stud screws.

How do I choose the right screw length?

The required screw length is determined by the plug length plus the fixture thickness plus one times the screw diameter.

What if the plug spins when I insert the screw?

Ensure the drill hole is the correct size. If it's too large, use a larger plug or fill the hole.

How do I remove the plug if I need to?

Unscrew the screw, then you can typically remove the plug using pliers.

Can I use the DuoPower for outdoor applications?

Yes, it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, provided the materials are appropriate for the environment.

Troubleshooting

Plug spins in the hole during screw insertion.

Ensure the drill hole is the correct size. If the hole is too large, consider using a larger diameter plug or filling the hole with an appropriate filler.

Screw does not tighten properly.

Verify that the screw is fully engaged with the plug. Ensure the screw is the correct type and length for the fixture and plug.

Plug pushes into the wall during installation.

Make sure you're using the right size drill bit. Also, you can try using a tool (like a hammer) to gently tap the plug into the hole.
