Which base materials is the Fischer FTP M8 anchor suitable for?

It is designed for aerated concrete (aircrete) and solid gypsum blocks. Its spiral external thread cuts directly into the material for a positive fit.

What drill hole diameter and depth are required?

Drill a 10 mm hole (12 mm in high-strength aerated concrete) with a minimum drill hole depth of 70 mm.

Which screws are compatible with this anchor?

The Fischer FTP M8 anchor features an internal metric thread designed for M8 metric bolts and threaded rods.

What tool is needed to install the anchor?

You can install it using a standard size 8 Allen key or an FTP EM hexagon bit with a cordless screwdriver on low torque.

Why is this anchor suitable for use near edges?

Because it creates a mechanical interlock almost free of expansion pressure, you can use it with small edge and axial spacings without cracking the surface.

Reliable anchoring with the Fischer aircrete plug

Practical benefits

Simple standard hex installation: You install the anchor directly into the drill hole using a standard Allen key without special tools.
Interlocking high load capacity: The spiral external thread taps positively into aerated concrete, ensuring a secure and solid mechanical interlock.
Expansion pressure-free fixing: You work safely with reduced edge distances and prevent plastered surfaces from splitting during fastening.

In a nutshell

The right choise for

With the Fischer ftp M8 aircrete anchor, you achieve a solid and dependable fixing in soft base materials such as aerated concrete and solid gypsum blocks. The spiral external thread cuts positively into the material, creating a mechanical interlock with high load capacity and pull-out resistance. Because the anchor works virtually free of expansion pressure, you can safely install close to edges without cracking plaster or crumbling masonry. Its internal metric thread allows direct installation of M8 bolts and threaded rods for radiators, pipe clamps, and substructures. You set the anchor quickly into the pre-drilled hole using a standard hex key or driver bit.

Product description

The metal anchor for metric screws for aerated concrete.

The fischer turbo Aircrete anchor FTP M is a special fixing for fixings in aerated concrete. The metal anchor is inserted into the drill hole in the pre-positioned installation using an Allen key. The spiral external thread cuts a mechanical interlock in the building material. The fischer turbo Aircrete anchor FTP M is ideally suited to securely fix mirror cabinets, radiators, and TV consoles to aerated concrete.

No setting tool necessary
High retention forces due to interlocking in building materials
Convenient assembly: reduced wear and tear
Low axial and edge distances due to expansion pressure-free anchoring
The Allen key chuck makes it possible to set the FTP M without the need for a special setting tool. This allows for a simple installation
The FTP M achieves a very high load-bearing capacity in aerated concrete for increased safety
The spiral-shaped outer thread taps itself into the aerated concrete with a positive fit. This means that it can be set without the need for much force
The special geometry allows for an almost expansion-force-free anchoring. This allows for small edge and spacing distances, and avoids splitting in the case of plastered surfaces

Suitable for

The FTP M is suitable for pre-positioned installation
The aircrete anchor taps itself into the aircrete with a positive fit during the installation process
Suitable for metric screws with diameter 6 to 10 mm
For installation with a hexagon socket: Size of the hexagon socket corresponds to screw diameter, e. g. FTP M6 is installed with hexagon socket size 6
For installation with cordless screwdriver: use a low torque and use the correct 6-kt bit FTP EM
