Product Overview:

These Forgefix cavity wall anchors give you a specialist fixing solution for plasterboard installations. Built with an all-metal construction, you'll find these fixings perfect for heavy-duty applications where heat resistance matters.

The anchors feature a clever dual-drive system, accepting both pozi and slotted screwdrivers for maximum flexibility during installation. Their zinc-plated finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance in various conditions.

Key Features:

• Robust Construction: The all-metal design makes these anchors ideal for mounting heavy items like radiators and wall units
• Smart Design: Anti-rotation teeth pierce the plasterboard's base skin, creating a firm grip that won't budge
• Lasting Protection: Zinc plating forms a protective barrier against corrosion, with the zinc oxide layer providing ongoing protection
• Permanent Solution: Unlike standard wall plugs, these fixings create a permanent installation that remains secure even after screw removal
• Innovative Mechanism: The anchor centre expands outwards when tightened, pressing against the plasterboard's reverse side for maximum hold

Installation Benefits:

The fixing mechanism creates a reliable hold through its innovative design. When you tighten the threaded bolt, the anchor's centre collapses outwards. This action presses firmly against the plasterboard's reverse side, establishing a secure fixing that maintains its grip even if you remove the screw later.

FAQs:

• How do I install Forgefix M4 cavity wall anchors correctly?
  Mark your fixing point, drill an 8mm hole through the plasterboard, insert the cavity anchor, and tighten until secure. The anchor's centre will expand behind the plasterboard, creating a strong fixing that can support heavy loads.
• What weight can Forgefix M4 cavity wall anchors hold?
  These M4 cavity anchors are suitable for heavy-duty applications like mounting radiators and kitchen wall units. The all-metal construction and expanding mechanism provide superior strength compared to standard wall plugs, making them ideal for substantial loads.
• Will Forgefix cavity anchors work in all types of plasterboard walls?
  Yes, these cavity anchors work effectively in standard plasterboard walls with a cavity behind them. They're designed with anti-rotation teeth that pierce the plasterboard skin, creating secure anchorage in walls up to 8mm thick.
• Why do my cavity wall anchors need zinc plating?
  Zinc plating provides essential corrosion protection by creating a barrier that prevents rust. When the coating is damaged, the zinc acts as a sacrificial anode, continuing to protect the metal beneath. This ensures long-lasting performance, particularly in areas prone to moisture.
• Can I remove and replace items fixed with cavity wall anchors?
  While you can remove and replace the screws, the cavity anchor itself creates a permanent fixing in your wall. For adjusting or relocating items, you'll need to install new anchors in different positions, as removal will damage the plasterboard.
• Which drill bit and tools do I need for cavity wall anchor installation?
  Use an 8mm masonry drill bit to create the initial hole. You'll need a drill, measuring tape, pencil, and either a manual screwdriver (pozi or slotted) or a cavity anchor setting gun for installation. Always wear appropriate safety gear, including eye protection.
