Hi Rog if you go on a manufacturer's website such as Fischer or contact their technical department they should be able to tell you the maximum load they will carry . You also need to take into account what you are fixing into as this will affect the holding capacity of the plug, eg. light weight blocks have a lower capacity than concrete blocks. Ed

Hi Rog I think it would vary depending upon the size of plug used. Obviously if it was something substantial think about using raw bolts rather than plugs
