Alligator plugArt. no.: 292143
ALLIGATOR - The universal plug with and without a collar.
ALLIGATOR can be used in almost any type of base material, Sheet material, Hollow material and Solid material. In Board material, ALLIGATOR folds out behind the wall and stays firm when the screw is installed. Screw size determines how hard the plug is pressed into the drilled hole. The larger the screw, the greater the pressure that expands and extends the plug in the hole.
The polypropylene material in the plug makes it corrosion-resistant. ALLGATOR can manage multiple screw dimensions and that shorter screws can be used. In Solid material (Type A), the screw can be removed from the plug and refitted (extract values may deteriorate slightly). ALLIGATOR can expand up to twice its original length (hollow & solid material).
For best strength, drilling a hole depth as long as the plug and adding twice the plug diameter is recommended. In soft materials like Leca, Siporex or the like, use a 2 mm smaller hole and in hard materials use a 1 mm larger hole.
Recommended . Extract value - Values may be specified in kN with safety factor 4 included. For plasterboard, use AF (collar) and for concrete A (without sleeve).
