Expansion anchor Fischer 568012 60 mm Nylon 25 pcs

The Fischer 568012 expansion anchor is a 60 mm nylon plug designed for secure fixing in a wide range of building materials including concrete, brick, autoclaved aerated concrete, gypsum fibre board and masonry. Supplied in packs of 25, this anchor combines 4-way expansion with anti-rotation features and special fixing wings to facilitate reliable and convenient installations.

Advantages

The 4-way expansion ensures efficient force transmission into the base material and provides high holding values in both solid and perforated substrates. Special fixing wings hold the screw in place during setting so both hands remain free for installation. An expansion-free plug neck prevents surface expansion forces while screwing, reducing the risk of damage to tiles or plaster. The plug’s shape allows easy insertion into the drill hole with only a few light hammer blows, and a pronounced collar prevents it from slipping deeper into the hole. Noticeable tightening torque gives clear feedback when the screw is correctly installed and helps avoid overtightening. Made from high-quality nylon, the plug delivers a durable, long-term hold.

Suitable for

• Concrete and reinforced concrete
• Solid brick and perforated brick
• Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC)
• Masonry and gypsum fibre board
• Fixing with wood, chipboard or stud screws

How to use

Drill the hole with the recommended 12 mm drill bit to the required depth, clean the hole of dust, then insert the Fischer 568012 plug until the collar rests against the surface. For pre-positioned installation the fixing wings fold inwards when the screw is inserted, holding the screw in place; for push-through installation insert the screw through the fixture and into the plug. Tighten the screw until the plug expands in four directions and anchors in the base material. Select a screw length equal to plug length + fixture thickness + screw diameter.

Recommendations

Use wood, chipboard or stud screws of the correct diameter and length. Clean drilled holes before insertion and avoid overtightening once the characteristic tightening torque is felt. Choose the appropriate anchor size and type for the specific base material and load requirements.
