The versatile metal cavity fixing with metric screws

ADVANTAGES

▪▪ Due▪ to▪ the▪ extensive▪ product▪ range,▪the▪ HM▪ is▪ suitable▪ for▪ board▪ building▪materials▪with▪a▪thickness▪of▪3-50mm▪making▪ it▪ suitable▪ for▪ a▪ number▪ of▪different▪applications.

▪▪ The▪ metric▪ internal▪ thread▪ allows▪ the▪attachment▪to▪be▪removed▪and▪refitted▪several▪times.▪

▪▪ The▪ HM‘s▪ expanding▪ arms▪ open▪ to▪create▪a▪ large▪surface▪area▪which▪can▪support▪a▪high▪load-bearing▪capacity.

▪▪ The▪claws▪around▪the▪neck▪of▪the▪fixing▪penetrate▪ the▪ board▪ building▪ material▪and▪ prevent▪ it▪ from▪ rotating▪ whilst▪being▪installed.

APPLICATIONS

▪▪ Pictures▪▪ Lighting▪▪ Shelves▪▪ Towel▪rails▪▪ Mirror▪cabinets▪▪ Curtain▪rails▪▪ TV▪consoles▪▪ Sub-structures

FUNCTIONING

▪▪ The▪metal▪cavity▪fixing▪HM▪ is▪suitable▪for▪pre-positioned▪installation.

▪▪ To▪achieve▪ the▪very▪best▪expansion▪ in▪the▪cavity▪the▪fixing▪should▪be▪selected▪based▪ on▪ the▪ thickness▪ of▪ the▪ board▪building▪material.▪

▪▪ During▪ installation,▪ the▪ arms▪ expand▪open▪ and▪ press▪ onto▪ the▪ reverse▪ side▪of▪the▪board.

▪▪ It▪is▪recommended▪that▪the▪installation▪tool▪be▪used▪to▪install▪the▪HM▪fixings

▪▪ If▪using▪a▪battery▪operated▪screwdriver▪or▪screwdriver▪for▪installation,▪the▪

▪▪▪▪▪▪pre-assembled▪screws▪must▪be▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪removed▪first.

▪▪ The▪ item▪ for▪ attachment▪ should▪ then▪▪be▪ placed▪ over▪ the▪ pre-installed▪ shell▪of▪ the▪ fixing,▪ install▪ the▪ screws▪ and▪expand▪ the▪ fixing.▪ ▪ This▪ reduces▪ the▪chance▪of▪the▪fixing▪
