Plastic wall plug alternatives

Nathan Rose over 6 years ago

Hi all,

Just wondering what people are using instead of the good old fashioned plastic wall plug? I’ve got a run of swa to pull in and am looking for something to meet the new regs.

Ive seen the dewalt wall dog screws but have seen mixed reviews about them.

Thanks

The "industry" has come together and stated that correctly selected and installed plastic wall plugs are fine.
