Mounting 32" Flatscreen TV

[Sandip]

Very excited about watching my new tele tonight. Bit concerned about smashing it before I reach the on switch

Putting up a 32" Sony on a cantilever bracket. They've supplied 3 long coach screws and accompanying wall plugs (see image below with 10p for scale).

The coach screws (80mm long) have 8.8 written on the head but the wall plugs have a 10 printed on the side - is this right?? And could you please tell me what size drill bit I need for this?

Any insight as to whether three of these is enough to hold about 25KG would also be appreciated

Thanks

10mm drill bit. The 8.8 on the bolt just refers to the hardness of the metal.
What is your wall made of? Should be fine if it's solid i.e. plastered brick or block.
