Plasterboard fixing metal GKM
BUILDING MATERIALS
▪ Gypsum fibreboard
▪ Gypsum plasterboard
ADVANTAGES
APPLICATIONS
FUNCTIONING
▪ Due to its material properties, the
GKM can be used in gypsum
plasterboard and gypsum fibreboard,
and can be used with the most wideranging screws, hooks and eye
screws. This allows for a broad range
of applications.
▪ The sharp, self-tapping thread
enables a secure, positive fit fixing.
This achieves a high load-bearing
capacity.
▪ The cross-drive recess means that a
standard screwdriver or bit can be
used. No special setting tool is
required.
▪ The short fixing length means that
only a small amount of space is
required behind the board. As a
result, the GKM can also be used in
the case of unknown board
thickness and cavity depth.
▪
▪
▪
▪
▪ The GKM is suitable for prepositioned installation.
▪ The self-tapping metal fixing GKM
taps itself into the plasterboard with
a positive fit.
▪ Flush installation in the board
building material. Overtightening the
fixing should be avoided. Therefore,
the installation torque should be
limited when using a battery
operated screwdriver.
▪ Adapted for wood, self-tapping and
chipboard screws of 4.0 to 5.0mm
diameter.
▪ Pre-drill with a Ø8mm drill bit when
using gypsum fibreboard and
double-planked gypsum
plasterboard.
▪ Not suitable for tiled plasterboard.
