Safeguard Dryzone Positioning Plugs

Secure Fixings for Cavity Drain and Damp-Proofing Membranes. Safeguard Dryzone Fixing Plugs are high-quality, impact-resistant plugs designed for the secure installation of cavity drainage and damp-proofing membranes to walls and other solid substrates. Suitable for use with Dryzone membranes and other mesh or studded membrane systems, these plugs ensure long-term mechanical stability while preventing moisture ingress at the fixing point.. Each plug is supplied with an integrated sealing washer, providing a watertight barrier once the plug is driven into the pre-drilled hole. The plugs can also be used to fix battens or tracking systems in internal waterproofing setups, making them an essential component of any damp-proofing or basement tanking project.. Key Features & Benefits. Watertight Seal: Integrated rubber washer prevents moisture ingress around the fixing point.. Compatible with Membranes: Designed for use with Safeguard and other cavity drain or studded membranes.. Strong Mechanical Fixing: Ribbed shaft design ensures firm hold in brick, concrete, and block substrates.. Versatile Use: Accepts screws for attaching battens, tracking systems, or insulation boards.. Quick Installation: Simple hammer-in design for fast and reliable application.. Product Details. Plug Length: Typically 60mm. Plug Diameter: 10mm–12mm (varies by model). Material: High-grade plastic with sealing washer. Applications: Internal wall membrane systems, basement waterproofing, batten fixing. Substrates: Brick, concrete, stone, and block. Application Instructions. Drill Holes: Use a masonry drill bit (usually 8–10mm) to create holes at the recommended spacing (typically 250mm centres).. Insert Plug: Position the membrane and drive the plug through the membrane into the pre-drilled hole.. Seal & Secure: Ensure the integrated washer is compressed against the membrane for a tight seal.. Optional Fixings: Insert screws into the central recess to attach battens or other materials if required.. Limitations. Not suitable for use on loose or soft substrates without additional anchoring methods.. Ensure proper drilling depth and alignment for secure fixing and sealing.. Health & Safety. Always wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves during installation. Follow membrane system manufacturer’s guidance for spacing and installation technique.
