Today I'm looking at some Corefix fixings for dot & dab dry lined walls. These are specifically designed for fixing heavy things to problem dry lined walls. The specs showed Ultimate Axial Tensile Force (pull-out) as:
Dense Concrete Block (1800kg/m3): 0.89kN (90.8kgf)
Aerated lightweight block (600kg/m3): 0.68kN (69.3kgf)
Obviously the above are MAX figures so divide by a safety factor of 7 to get safe loads - see Corefix datasheet for more info.

Impressive stats so time for a pull force test and to see if I can hang my 30kg plasma TV on ONE screw in a dot & dab drylined wall?? CAUTION: Do not attempt to hang a TV using only one screw, obviously.
