Zip-It Hollow Wall Fastener Nylon POWZIP-ITNYLON-PWR

Description

Convenient Fixings for Hollow Wall Installations

The Zip-It Hollow Wall Fastener Nylon POWZIP-ITNYLON-PWR is a one-piece, self-drilling anchor designed for light-duty fixing applications in hollow gypsum wallboard. Its specialised thread features thin, knife-like cutting edges that cut cleanly into the wall material, helping provide a straightforward installation process for trade professionals and general maintenance tasks.

Suitable for applications where lightweight fixtures need to be secured to plasterboard, this nylon wall anchor offers a practical alternative to conventional fixings that require a pre-drilled hole. Its self-drilling design allows installation using a screwdriver, helping reduce preparation time and simplify work across residential and commercial interiors.

Self-Drilling Design for Easier Installation

Designed with convenience in mind, the Zip-It nylon anchor eliminates the need for a separate drilling step in suitable wallboard applications. The cutting thread penetrates the plasterboard as the anchor is driven into position, helping create a fixing point for the appropriate screw.

This installation method can be useful for electricians, builders and maintenance teams completing small jobs, particularly when fitting multiple lightweight fixtures. The anchor’s Phillips PH2 drive specification identifies the required drive type for installation. Using the correct screwdriver helps support controlled engagement and reduces the likelihood of damaging the drive during fitting.

Practical Fixing for Lightweight Fixtures

The Zip-It Hollow Wall Fastener is intended for light-duty applications involving fixtures such as pictures, lamps, rails and similar items. Its hollow-point design accommodates longer screws, offering additional flexibility when selecting compatible screws for the installation.

The nylon construction is specified for applications including electrical switches, pictures, lamps and rails. Actual suitability depends on the fixture, wallboard condition, screw compatibility and applied load. Select fixings according to the requirements of the installation, and avoid using this anchor for heavy-duty or load-critical applications beyond its intended purpose.
