Hi folks being new to DIY there is still a lot to learn so apologies if this seems simple to many of you, I want to buy the above plug and was looking at screws that go with it- it says to use 4g screws which i take to mean 4 guage which equals 3mm, when I try and then find a 4 guage/3mm screw on the screwfix site I cant seem to find it, can anyone point me in the right direction and show a link to the right screws? Thanks a lot

Thanks for the reply, I think I was getting confused as in the specifications it says

Specifications:
Requires 4g single thread screw or twinthread equivalent. 6mm drill size

so they are saying screw size 4 but in the title of the plug it says screw size 8. Must be a typo in the specifications.

Thanks for the link you provided, just one last point in the link you gave me the screw size is written as 2 1/2" x 8- this means 2 & 1/2 inch length? Thanks a lot for your help
