Good to know

For best results, drill a hole with a 6 mm bit to a depth of at least 55 mm, then insert the plug flush with the surface. Choose a screw with a diameter between 3.5 and 5 mm. The plug's design allows it to expand securely as the screw is driven, providing a firm grip. While UV resistance is limited, the plug is ideal for indoor use or protected outdoor areas. Always follow local building codes and manufacturer guidelines for load-bearing applications.
