About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
The 4-way expansion provides the optimum force distribution in the material, and offers ideal load-bearing capacities in solid and hollow building materials
The expansion-free plug neck prevents the creation of expansion forces on the material surface whilst screwing in the screw
This helps to prevent damage to tiles and plaster
The pronounced rim prevents the plug from slipping into the drill hole, thus allowing for a simple installation

sorted byObviously Amazon means no need to go to B&Q, but I also don't think this is such a bargain price that anyone should buy 5 years supply of them.
Also, it falls between 2 stools.
(i) If I'm using a plastic wall plug, a normal posidrive screw is usually sufficient
(ii) If I want a big heavy screw, I would usually prefer a metal anchor.
The previous occupants of my house fixed the TV aerial to the wall with a slightly larger version of this fixing. OK for a few years, but when the aerial started flopping about, I got the ladder out and found out the plastic was deformed. Which is likely to happen eventually in a high stress application.
