- Secure, Tamper‑Resistant Fixing: No exposed fastener once the cap is fitted; protects against interference and weather damage
- Wide Head Reduces Stress: 17 mm broad head spreads load widely; helps prevent cracking in fragile materials such as acrylic and glass
- Ventilated Stand‑Off: Leaves a controlled gap behind the panel; stops moisture pooling and prevents discoloration or mould growth
- Long‑Lasting Finish: Chrome plating resists corrosion indoors and outdoors; retains shine without dulling or rusting for years
- Economical Bulk Pack: Lower unit pricing for sign makers, fabricators and contractors; ensures continuous stock availability for large projects
- Versatile Surface Compatibility: Works reliably with suitable anchors in concrete, brick, timber, metal and plasterboard
Installation Guidelines
- Drill panel holes 8–10 mm diameter; maintain at least 2–3 cm clearance from edges
- Drill wall holes to match the chosen anchor size; ensure plugs sit fully flush
- Secure the threaded base section — do not over‑tighten; avoid crushing the panel
- Fit the panel then screw the decorative cap down by hand; use only light spanner pressure if needed
- Use spacers for panels thicker than 6 mm to distribute pressure evenly
- For exterior use, specify stainless steel fixings and anchors throughout
- Increase fixing density on large or wind‑exposed signs; reduce spacing between points
