Review: Excellent plugs and screws at a premium price - The number of times I've used the soft screws that come with a fitting, like lights and wall mounts, etc. means I've probably sworn and been frustrated more times than I needed to. What I should have done, and what it's taken me too long to learn, is that I need to have a good selection of high quality plugs and screws to hand and to use them instead. I'm now a complete convert to Fischer products. I'd suggest getting a multi-pack first, but if like me you're running out of a type, then you can always re-fill with these packs. *** Pros *** - Very good plugs that work well in almost all situations - Vastly superior to the types of plugs and screws that are included with some products - Screws are of a very good quality - Screws are 35mm long - Screw head is PZ2 - Plugs are suitable for a 5mm drill bit - Box is recyclable *** Cons *** - I'd have liked Fischer to offer a shorter screw length option *** Overall *** I don't like to waste time, so I now know that buying Fischer plugs and screws is a guaranteed way to get something that is going to work very well and isn't going to fail on me (no rounding of screws, no poorly manufactured plugs, no shearing of screw heads, etc.). These are robust and trusted, but you do pay extra for that peace of mind. Review: Top Class - I most of the time use tx head screws the only exception is these. Fantastic bit of kit. Hung alot of big heavy Roman blinds into plasterboard. Solid as a rock ## Features - Two component materials for top load values and intelligent functioning depending on the substrate - Great feedback (feel-good factor) of the plug. You can feel exactly when the plug is installed perfectly - The narrow plug rim prevents slipping into the drill hole ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01LX4FIPX | | Best Sellers Rank | 199,346 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 1,059 in Plugs (DIY & Tools) | | Brand Name | fischer | | Colour | Grey/Red | | Compatible Groove Diameter | 8 Millimeters | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,507) | | Drive System | Phillips | | Exterior Finish | Plain | | Fastener Size | 8 x 65 mm | | Fastener Type | Screw | | Finish Types | Uncoated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04048962262131 | | Head Type | round | | Included Components | Plugs | | Item Diameter | 8 Millimetres | | Item Dimensions | 9 x 9 x 9 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Wall Plug | | Item Weight | 8.8 Ounces | | Manufacturer | fischer | | Manufacturer Part Number | 538246 | | Material Type | Plastic | | Metal | Nylon | | Model Number | 538246 | | Number of Pieces | 25 | | Screw Head Style | Flat | | Screw Point Style | With Screw | | Set Name | Set of 50 | | Set Screw Thread Type | UNC or UNF | | Size | 8x65 | | Thread Class | standard | | Thread Coverage | Partially Threaded | | Thread Style | Right Hand | | Thread Type | UNC or UNF | | Unit Count | 25.0 count | ## Product Details - **Exterior finish:** Plain - **Head style:** Flat - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 9 x 9 x 9 centimetres - **Material:** Plastic - **Point style:** With Screw ## Images ![DuoPower 8 x 65 S - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81aOqQ1vFFL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: what's the size of the head of the screw?
