What it is
The AN 17 suspended ceiling plug Bossong (code AN 17) is the professional solution for stable fixings on suspended ceilings and hollow walls, designed for building installers and service engineers who need precision in light-duty applications.
Plasterboard and insulation fixings are fixings that open out behind the board or hold insulation panels in place, for fixing to hollow walls and ETICS insulation systems.
What it is for
Used for general-purpose fixing into masonry, concrete and timber and for fixing into plasterboard and lightweight partitions.
How to use it
Drill the board with a suitable bit or screw the self-drilling plug in directly, without hammer action. Insert the fixing and tighten it until it opens out behind the board, without overtightening so as not to break through the plasterboard. For insulation, drill through to the load-bearing substrate and insert the fixing flush with the panel, using the specified setting tool.
