Unicrimp has significantly expanded its established Q Crimp Fixings range with the introduction of two major new product lines.


T


he new additions consists of the Bullfix heavy duty plasterboard fixing and the Plus Series high performance woodscrews, as well as a broad selection of new fixings and additional sizes. The new Bullfix range delivers exceptional strength for plasterboard applications, supporting loads up to 133kg and offering fast, five-step installation. The Plus Series woodscrews provide high performance, no pre-drilling in most applications, CE approval to EN14592, and enhanced corrosion resistance.


In addition, Unicrimp (which is part of the Scolmore Group and a leading manufacturer of cable accessories) has introduced multiple new fixings lines and size extensions, further strengthening its position as a comprehensive one-stop fixings supplier for professional installers. A dedicated Fixings brochure has been produced to support the expanded range.


Bullfix: Heavy-duty plasterboard fixing for demanding loads


The Bullfix range has been engineered to deliver exceptional strength and reliability when securing heavy items to plasterboard in domestic environments. Its patented smart-wing design ensures a tight, stable fixing across all common plasterboard types, including stud walls, dot-and- dab, and insulation-backed boards (12.5-16mm). Two versions are available:


• Bullfix Heavy Duty — supports loads up to 116kg with a 7mm cavity.


• Bullfix Heavy Duty Extra — supports loads up to 133kg with a 20mm cavity.


Installation is straightforward and can be completed in five simple steps – drill into the wall, insert the collar, push in the fixing, tap until flush, and attach the fixture – enabling installers


to secure high-strength fixing quickly and confidently.


Primarily developed for domestic environments, Bullfix is suited for securing radiators, shelving units, cabinets, televisions and other heavy wall- mounted fixtures to plasterboard walls. Its high load-bearing capability delivers enhanced safety and durability for both installer and end user.


Plus Series: High-performance woodscrews for fast, clean, reliable fixing


The new Plus Series woodscrews deliver speed, strength and a professional finish across softwood, hardwood, MDF and chipboard, with no pre- drilling required in most applications. Key features include:


• CE Approved to EN14592 for load-bearing timber construction.


• Zinc plated & yellow passivated (3–5 microns) for corrosion resistance.


• Reamed mid-section to reduce driving torque and prevent timber jacking.


• Deep-cut thread for excellent pull-out performance.


• Fully threaded up to 40mm for secure clamping.


• Type 17 cut point for fast, accurate starting.


Manufactured from high-grade C1022 carbon steel and hardened to 550–800HV, the Plus Series offers increased strength and faster installation times. A self-lubricating coating further reduces
