Nylon Frame Fixings 8 x 80mm – Pre-Assembled, Box of 100

Pre-assembled 8 x 80mm nylon frame fixings with a zinc-plated countersunk screw, in a trade box of 100. Designed for through-fixing – drill straight through the frame into the wall, push the fixing home and drive the screw – so the frame stays exactly where you set it.

Anti-rotation lugs stop the plug spinning as you tighten, and the 8mm nylon sleeve expands to grip firmly in brick, block, stone and concrete. With a maximum fixture thickness of 40mm, this size suits timber frames, battens, door and window linings and heavier joinery.

FAQs

What size drill bit do I need for 8 x 80mm frame fixings?

Use a 8mm masonry bit and drill through the fixture into the wall. Make the hole at least as deep as the plug (80mm) plus a little extra so dust doesn’t stop the fixing seating fully.

What does maximum fixture thickness mean?

It’s the thickest item you can fix through and still get full plug embedment in the wall. For this size it’s 40mm – for a thicker frame or batten, step up to a longer fixing.

Frame fixing or hammer fixing – which do I need?

Frame fixings use a stronger screw that you drive fully home – best for frames, linings and heavier joinery. Hammer fixings are tapped in for speed – best for battens, skirting and light, repetitive fixing. See our hammer fixings range.

Can I use them outside?

The zinc-plated screw is rated for clean, dry, low-humidity conditions (corrosion rating 1), so they’re intended for internal use. For external or damp locations use a stainless steel fixing.
