Evening all. I need to do the above. Now I have looked online at lots of different anchors but none that seem to be good for brick work. Drop in anchors are only good for concrete apparently. I am just needing to fit a few pipes and a flue so not really that much load on it. What about these resin fixings, are they any good
 
What is the fixing for, and what size stud is it, M10?
 
A bit OTT mate, frame fixings or at most an off the shelf sleeve anchor should both be fine for brickwork. I'd only use threaded bar/resin fixings for high load applications or where I need the extra length of thread that a fixing won't provide or if the brickwork is shot.
 
I did say above what it is for, pipe and a plume kit. The plume kit needs m8. But the bit they supplied with it is too short for what I need
 
If not concrete screws and straight in.

Sorry Mutley, been a long day, Why not just get a female backplate to accept a longer bit of stud, fix the backplate to the brickwork with a plugs and screws.
 
Wheres the job, I might be able to help, im from Kingston lol
 
Shield Anchor Stud Type M8 x 70mm Pack of 5 | Stud | NoLinkingToThis how about those?
 
Just get a malleable iron back plate two m10 nuts some stud and a lined clip.

If it's external buy stainless
 
Yep :)

Edit. Yep was meant to you being able to replace the threaded dar in a shield anchor....

had the same issue recently and the resin insert was a quick easy option that works well, still got the rest of the tube for next job.
 
Well it turns out with those sleeve fixings you can't put your own treaded rod in it as the rod that's in it has a tapered edge which pulls into the sleeve and expands it when tightening. So used the epoxy resin stuff, which I may say, works a treat!

Hi all. Hope you have all been keeping well. A while back I decided I only wanted to fit one brand of boiler and decided on Viessmann due to space for servicing and changing parts if ever needing to. I am finding my decision rather hard due to the different clearances on flue runs and cupboards...

Ideal Logic 24, Previous problem was that the hot water was only cold or barely warm if the heating was in use. If heating was off and boiler cold then would get hot water most of the time. Changing the flow cartridge about 2 years ago (when I moved in) solved this problem enough to suffer it as...

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
