Nail anchor – ND-DAILY NAILY
The KTS nail anchor / impact anchor is ideal for quick and secure installation in concrete and solid stone. A galvanized nail screw with countersunk head is pre-assembled in our anchor. Our anchors offer one collar each for countersunk head as well as cylinder head screws. This means that the nail screw can always be countersunk perfectly flat. The dowel itself is made of high-quality, high-strength polyamide (nylon). Therefore, it can be easily hammered directly into the drill hole with the pre-mounted screw.
RANGE OF APPLICATION:
- Concrete
- Lightweight concrete
- Solid stones
- Hollow blocks
- Aerated concrete
- Natural stone
The right impact dowel for every project
Depending on the intended use, different lengths of stainless steel nail screws with countersunk heads and plugs are available. For example, you can choose a 160 mm long shank plug (made of nylon). Each screw nail made of refined steel is galvanized and pre-assembled by us for extra durability and stability. The special feature of the impact anchor is that it can be easily loosened or readjusted if necessary. To do this, you can simply loosen the screw nail a bit with a common screwdriver. Our impact dowels are available in our store in different quantities and mm lengths to suit your projects.
What is the difference between a nail plug and an impact plug?
In fact, the only difference here is the name, because both nail anchor and impact anchor refer to one and the same type of anchor. Depending on the field of work, one or another name for this type of anchor is more common.
How exactly does a nail plug work?
An impact dowel works very simply. No special tool is required for a nail plug. You can actually hammer it in like a nail. However, drill a suitable hole in the wall in advance so that the impact dowel can be hammered in. When the dowel is hammered in, the end of the dowel expands and is thus clamped in the drilled hole. This gives the dowel enormous stability and you high security as well as load capacity.
When is an impact anchor used?
Impact dowels are ideal for the quick installation of roof battens, metal battens, pipe clips, frames and posts. They are suitable for almost any building material, such as
- Concrete
- Solid brick
- Hollow block
- Aerated concrete
- Perforated brick
But drive-in dowels are also ideal for push-through installation and ensure excellent hold for any fastenings.
Can impact dowels also be screwed?
Since the dowel is hammered into an existing drill hole, as already described, you can at least not screw it completely into the wall. But to make a final fine adjustment or even remove the screw from the dowel, you can screw the dowel. For this purpose, the screw nail has a countersunk head with cross recess, which you can easily use with a screwdriver.
Where else can a nail plug be used?
Impact dowels are also ideal for your drywall construction projects. Nail anchors have proven to be extremely reliable and very resilient, especially in drywall construction, and are very popular here. Especially when fastening wall panels or other wall claddings, our nail anchor ensures you fast and safe work. In addition, the nail anchor from KTS also withstands any weather, should you ever use it outdoors. It owes this durability to the nail screw made of refined steel, which has been galvanized.
Tip for all DIYers
Our nail anchors are versatile. Thanks to the different sizes and Ø from 3.3 mm to 4.8 mm and the practical flat head, you can also use the plugs for attaching
- Pictures
- Lamps
- Holding strips
- Panels
- Wall coverings
use Depending on the load on the dowel, one or two pieces are sufficient to ensure a high level of security. This allows you to attach many different items quickly and securely. As a result, our nail plugs offer a solution that brings economic benefits. Another enormously practical function of our nail plugs is the drive-in lock, which prevents the plug or plug sleeve from expanding prematurely. Thanks to the drive-in lock, the plug only expands when it is screwed in further after being driven in. This function ensures simple, durable and resilient installation.
Conclusion about the nail plug
Our nail plug offers you a variety of application options, from wall mounting to push-through installation, and always ensures a high load-bearing capacity and security. Simply pre-drill a hole, drive in the nail plug and you have the right hold! This not only offers you versatility, but also economic advantages.
