Conical plastic anchors, sometimes called wall plugs or expansion anchors, are essential for fastening into drywall, masonry, plaster, and brick.

What Are Conical Plastic Anchors?

A conical plastic anchor is a tapered, flared plastic plug that expands within a drilled hole when a screw is inserted. Commonly used to fix shelving, cable ducting, light fittings, trunking, and electrical or electronic enclosures.

Choosing the Right Plastic Anchor for Your Application

The effectiveness of a plastic conical anchor depends on matching the anchor size, material, and length to your wall type and screw load. For heavy-duty installations (over 10 kg load per anchor), consider reinforced nylon anchors or alternative fixing types-check with your engineer if unsure.

Installation Steps (Quick Guide)

1. Mark the drill point and check for pipes/cables behind the wall.
2. Select the correct drill bit for your anchor size (refer to our table above).
3. Drill a straight hole to the required depth-slightly deeper than anchor length.
4. Insert the conical anchor by hand, ensuring a snug fit.
5. Seat the screw as recommended, allowing the anchor to expand behind the wall substrate.

Typical Use Cases

• Mounting electronic/electrical enclosures to walls
• Installing cable trays, trunking, and instrument panels
• Shelving supports and displays for education/tertiary labs
• Industrial maintenance and shopfitting teams
