Fischer DUOPOWER Nylon High-Performance Plug 8 x 40mm
The Fischer DUOPOWER 8 x 40mm is a high-performance two-component nylon wall plug designed to provide a strong, long-lasting fixing in a wide range of solid and hollow building materials.
Ideal for fixing downpipe clips with 4mm or 5mm screws, as well as many other domestic and trade building applications.
High-Performance Two-Component Wall Plug
Fischer DUOPOWER plugs combine two nylon materials in one fixing. This intelligent design allows the plug to adapt automatically to the building material, helping provide reliable load transfer and a secure fixing.
Depending on the substrate, the plug can expand, fold or knot to create a firm hold. This makes it a versatile choice for many common building materials and general fixing tasks.
Ideal for Downpipe Clips
A practical choice for fixing downpipe brackets and clips to exterior walls. The 8 x 40mm plug is suitable for use with commonly used 4mm or 5mm screws.
Multi-Purpose Building Fixing
Suitable for a broad range of domestic, maintenance and construction projects where a dependable nylon wall plug is required.
Suitable for Different Building Materials
The DUOPOWER design reacts according to the material it is installed into. In solid masonry it can expand against the sides of the drilled hole, while in hollow or weaker materials it can fold or knot to improve grip.
This makes it useful where the exact wall construction may vary across a property or project.
Drill a 8mm diameter hole to approximately 45mm deep, remove loose drilling dust and insert the plug fully before fitting the screw.
Recommended Screw Size
For downpipe clips and similar light-to-medium fixing applications, these plugs are suitable for use with 4mm or 5mm diameter screws. The final screw length should allow for the thickness of the item being fixed as well as adequate engagement through the plug.
Always select the fixing according to the wall condition, intended load and manufacturer guidance.
Key Benefits
Strong Initial Grip
The plug is designed to resist turning within the drilled hole, helping make screw installation easier and more controlled.
Reliable Long-Term Fixing
High-quality nylon construction and adaptive fixing action help provide a secure installation that is suitable for long-term use.
