Oversized Posi drill bits?

Jun 26, 2008 8 Replies

I've always seen Posi 1, 2 & 3 bits at Wickes/B&Q etc, but never any Pozi 4. Do they exist?



I only ask because, having shredded another of those Rawlplug screw in frame fixings, I'd like to find one. You know, the 100mm long, 10mm dia mediumweight ones that clearly have a head suited to something larger than a Pozi 3.



Having just looked on Rawlplug's website, they really do require a Posi 4. Anyone seen one?

Answering my own question, Screfix do one @ =A32.70.

'd appreciate if anyone knows if they're available in a shop though, as that'd cost me =A37.70 delivered :) .

You don't say where you are, but how about a Screwfix shop?

You're a star Rod! Didn't know they existed.

Looks like I'm off to Tunbridge Wells for the second time today. [insert saying about planning & saving time]

10mm hole), the sole purpose of the Pozi head is for REMOVAL only!

?? Certainly not what the instructions on the link say... once you've hammered them in, they should indeed be screwed in.

going into aldi on thursday i noticed they had extension support rods in stock, which i remembered seeing mentioned here in this group ages ago, theyre about a tenner, i bought three, theyre upto 290cm long, with a rachety thingummy, good for holding up plasterboard whilst screwing it to cielings and other such jobs i think...

Check out Multi Monties on the Screwfix site. T30 or hex head. I use 3 x

6mm x 120mm to fix 75mm posts to wall. Easier to pull a sailor off your sister than move the post.
