Fixings for Plasterboard

Fixing to Plasterboard

Plasterboard requires fixing elements specifically designed for hollow-wall structures. During installation, the metal anchor expands behind the plasterboard and forms a supporting surface that helps distribute the fixing load over a larger area.

Fixing to Single and Double Plasterboard

The fixing element should be selected according to the thickness of the plasterboard structure. The range includes metal anchors for single and double plasterboard, so it is important to consider the board thickness and expected load before selecting the appropriate fixing.

How to Choose a Plasterboard Anchor?

When choosing a plasterboard anchor, consider the thickness of the plasterboard, the construction of the mounted component and the expected load. The anchor size should be suitable for the specific wall construction so that the expanding parts behind the board can form a secure support.

Plasterboard Anchor Installation

Drill a hole of the appropriate diameter in the plasterboard and insert the metal anchor. During installation, the anchor expands behind the board to form a supporting surface, and the mounted component is then secured with the screw.
