Gypsum
board, concrete or ceramic block - in the wall made of these and many other
materials, we can now fasten without fear. The
new fischer DuoPower peg, regardless of the substrate, achieves very good
strength parameters and allows you to securely attach the curtain rod, mirror,
shelf or skirting board.

The
DuoPower dowel mounting base
DuoPower
pins will work in most typical fasteners that await us at home and on the
construction site. Thanks
to the universality of their use, they enable installation in any wall -
regardless of the type of building material.
Intelligent
principle of operation
The
pins have been designed in a way that allows flexible adaptation to a specific
substrate. A
combination of two components - a soft and hard material - serves this purpose. When
we place the pin in the hole, it will undergo such a deformation that will
allow it to best combine with the material. The
gray part of the nylon sleeve activates one of the three functions, and the red
expansion wings press against the walls of the opening and prevent rotation
during assembly. For
example, in ceramic hollow bricks or aerated concrete, DuoPower is looped, in
concrete and other solid materials, and the plasterboard decomposes.These three
separate functions allow to achieve a much higher load capacity than in the
case of traditional universal dowels available on the market. According to the manufacturer, one
peg of this type, 8x40 in size, can withstand the weight of several dozen kg in
both concrete, ceramic hollow block and plasterboard. Choosing DuoPower, we do not have to
worry about what the wall was made of and if the dowel can withstand the load -
the fixing is safe, easy and quick.
What does the assembly
look like?
The installation of new
fischer dowels is easy, convenient and does not deviate from the traditional
forms of dowels embedding in assembly holes. An
additional feature of DUOPOWER is the blockage against premature expansion and
the optimized shape of the shirt with a small flange at the inlet. The flange allows both pre-assembly
and through-assembly. During
deposition, the pin does not rotate in the hole due to the characteristic
teeth. A specially designed hole
inside the pin makes it easier to guide the screw, while a small flange on the
outside prevents the fitting from falling into the hole. To place a pin in the hole, just
insert it in and tap it with a hammer or a jig. Remember to check beforehand whether
there is any dust in the hole after drilling - if necessary, clean the hole to
ensure the quality of fixing.
The peg, apart from all
traditional building materials, is also suitable for wood and particle boards. The increased anchorage length makes
DuoPower also performs assembly in hollow bricks, aerated concrete or plastered
walls. With the help of the new
fischer peg we can securely mount, for example, railings and handrails, hanging
decoration elements (like paintings and mirrors), lighting, cabinets and
shelves, TV fixtures, blinds or curtain rods or sanitary elements.
