Frequently Asked Questions
What screw size do yellow plugs take?
Yellow wall plugs are designed for No. 6 to No. 8 screws — the most common sizes used in standard domestic and light commercial fixing applications.
What drill bit do I need?
Use a 5.5mm masonry drill bit to create the correct hole size for this plug. A hammer drill is recommended for masonry and concrete block.
Can I use them in plasterboard?
No — standard wall plugs are designed for solid masonry. For plasterboard, use a dedicated plasterboard fixing such as a cavity anchor or spring toggle.
Are they suitable for outdoor use?
Yes — suitable for external masonry fixings. Use stainless steel or exterior-grade screws to prevent rust when fixing outdoors.
How deep should I drill?
Drill to a depth slightly greater than the plug length (22mm) to allow the plug to sit flush or just below the surface.
Polypropylene (PP) plastic. Suitable for use in masonry, brick and concrete block.
