Anchor Conical Plastic - In Stock & Ready for Collection in Johannesburg

Secure, Hassle-Free Mounting with Plastic Conical Anchors

Whether you're fixing shelves, electrical boxes, cabling routes or signage, a plastic conical anchor delivers reliable holding strength and quick installation. At Communica Johannesburg, we stock a range of anchor types and sizes suitable for everyday and specialist trades.

Plastic conical anchors (sometimes called wall plugs or expansion plugs) are designed to expand under screw insertion, gripping firmly in brick, plaster, hollow block and drywall substrates. For installers, DIYers, students, and engineers working in the Johannesburg area, having quality, locally stocked anchors reduces project downtime and ensures fit-for-purpose hardware.

When to Use Conical Plastic Anchors

• Mounting conduit clips, light fixtures, skirting boards, sensors, or brackets in masonry
• Fixing electrical back boxes and component enclosures to walls
• Securing shelving, cable runs, or prototyping rigs for education/tertiary projects

Common Anchor Sizes and Key Specs

Always check the packaging for recommended drill bit sizes and compatible screw dimensions. Our product detail pages and branch staff can assist with spec selection and application notes.

Specification Callouts and Compatibility Tips

• Plastic conical anchors are widely compatible with woodscrews, chipboard screws, and electrical mounting screws of matching size
• Choose the correct anchor for wall composition: solid brick, concrete block, plasterboard (light loads only)

Always use a masonry drill bit matched to the anchor diameter, keep hole depth slightly longer than anchor, and clear debris for best grip. For hollow walls or where higher loads are present, consider toggles or chemical anchors, also available at Communica.

Example Application: Mounting a 1kg Junction Box

• Anchor size: 6 x 30mm
• Drill hole: 6mm to 35mm depth
