Expansion anchor Fischer 562160 180 mm Nylon 50 pcs

The Fischer 562160 expansion anchor is a 180 mm nylon anchor designed for reliable non-structural fixings in concrete, masonry and gypsum blocks. Supplied in packs of 50, the anchor features a grey nylon main body for strength and a red component for flexibility and optimal spreading. The combination of materials and design allows universal use across different building substrates, and the product is suitable for push-through installation with a pre-mounted safety screw to save installation time.

Advantages

The anchor's grey high-quality nylon body provides strength while the red material element ensures flexibility and controlled expansion. A specially shaped lamella geometry enables gentle expansion in various building materials, reducing the risk of fracture in porous substrates and allowing anchoring close to edges. The pre-mounted safety screw is matched to the plug to streamline installation. The product holds a European Technical Assessment (ETA) for multiple use in non-structural applications, ensuring secure performance across building material classes.

Suitable for

• Fixing timber to concrete or masonry
• Anchoring fittings and fixtures in concrete
• Use in gypsum blocks and perforated brickwork
• General non-structural load-bearing applications

How to use

Drill a hole of 10 mm diameter to at least 190 mm depth in the chosen substrate. Clean the hole from dust and debris. Insert the Fischer 562160 expansion anchor by push-through installation so the lamellas sit correctly in the material. Drive the pre-mounted safety screw until the anchor expands and engages the substrate. For perforated materials ensure the lamellas expand at the stone web to form an undercut and transfer loads evenly.

Recommendations

For secure anchoring, follow the ETA guidelines for non-structural applications and observe substrate-specific drill depths and edge distances. Use appropriate drill bits for masonry or concrete and verify load requirements before installation.
