Hi all
I've been searching but can't find guide or table advising how much load plasterboard wallplugs can take in ceiling. As force pulling directly down I can assume it would be less than published figures for walls
I'm putting up a flush light fitting
The ceiling is plasterboard
Fitting is 1.3kg which is not very heavy and there will be 3 screws.
There is no access to floor space above
And there are no beams in location
For heavier I would definitely use Molly bolts (don't like using toggles)
But would rawlplug uno (red or brown) be ok for 1.3kg
