Description
Overview:
The Forgefix Plasterboard Spring Toggle M5 x 75mm is an all‐metal cavity fixing designed to give a strong, reliable hold in hollow substrates. Supplied as a bag of 10, each fixing combines a spring‐loaded wing with an M5 machine screw to clamp securely behind the board. The 75 mm screw length (approx. 3 in) suits common fixture thicknesses and typical cavity depths, making it a practical choice for bathrooms, kitchens, living spaces, and light commercial areas. Built from durable metal, it performs well where heat resistance is important, unlike plastic anchors. Ideal for mounting bathroom accessories, shelving, light fittings and radiator brackets, it provides dependable performance in plasterboard and traditional lath‐and‐plaster without requiring specialist tools. Forgefix quality makes these toggles a sensible choice for both trades and DIY.
Key Features:
- All‐metal toggle and screw for strength and heat resistance
- M5 thread with 75 mm screw length (approx. 3 in) for versatile reach in cavities
- Spring wings expand to a wide span for effective load distribution behind the board
- Works in plasterboard and lath‐and‐plaster where solid fixing points are limited
- Easy to install: drill the correct hole size, compress wings, insert, and tighten from one side
- Standard M5 thread suits a wide range of brackets, channels, and accessories
- Secure clamping action helps resist pull‐through on light to medium‐duty fixings
- Smooth operation allows controlled tightening without spinning in the hole
- Supplied in a bag of 10 for consistent, repeat fittings across a project
- Handy for maintenance teams and installers needing a reliable hollow‐wall fixing
Typical Applications:
Mounting shelves, mirror and towel rails, bathroom accessories, hooks, light fittings and tracks, trunking and cable clips, small cabinets, and radiator brackets onto plasterboard or lath‐and‐plaster walls and ceilings. Suitable for domestic refurbishments, office fit‐outs, retail displays, and facilities maintenance. Always check substrate condition and overall load requirements before use.
