Has anyone used them?
Bloody brilliant. I wish I’d known about them years ago.

Yes, it’s for dot n dab walls
They’re brilliant
Drill hole through plasterboard & into wall, put plug in, then put metal sheath in & then screw.
Fantastic
It’s solved all future problems for dodgy fixings.
Now a proxy for drywall is being sought by me!
Any recommendations for them?
Cheers all

Not used them yet, but will be getting some. Fitting to dot and dab can be a problem and in the past I just used the extra long plugs and screws. With Corefix, the metal refinforcing tube will bridge the gap and make the fixing a lot more stable.

They are rip off price for what they are but I've never found a stronger fixing, I even used them when hanging a posh low level cistern and it wasn't even dot and dab.
Charge the customer though..

Here's a great vid for dry wall fixings. See which takes the most weight.
