Dryzone Plugs 12mm (1000 Pack)

High-Strength Membrane Fixing Plugs with Optional Screw Fixing

Dryzone 12mm Plugs are robust mechanical fixings used to securely anchor cavity drain and damp-proofing membranes to walls constructed of brick, stone, or concrete. Designed for use with 12mm drill holes, these plugs offer excellent grip and a watertight seal when used with compatible sealing washers or mastic.

Supplied in a bulk pack of 1000, these high-performance plugs are ideal for large-scale internal waterproofing and damp-proofing applications. Their hollow core allows for the optional use of self-tapping screws, enabling you to fix battens, plasterboard, or tracking systems directly over the membrane.
