Unicrimp, part of the Scolmore Group and a leading manufacturer of cable accessories, has expanded its established Q‑Crimp Fixings range with a series of significant new additions.
The latest rollout introduces two standout products – the Bullfix heavy‑duty plasterboard fixing and the Plus Series high‑performance woodscrews – as well as a wide selection of new fixings and size extensions. These additions enhance the depth and versatility of the existing Q‑Crimp offering, giving wholesalers and contractors a more complete, high‑quality solution for modern installation requirements.
Bullfix: Heavy‑duty plasterboard fixing for demanding loads
The Bullfix range has been engineered to deliver exceptional strength and reliability when securing heavy items to plasterboard in domestic environments. Its patented smart‑wing design ensures a tight, stable fixing across all common plasterboard types, including stud walls, dot‑and‑dab, and insulation‑backed boards (12.5-16mm).
Two versions are available:
- Bullfix Heavy Duty — supports loads up to 116kg with a 7mm cavity.
- Bullfix Heavy Duty Extra — supports loads up to 133kg with a 20mm cavity.
Installation is straightforward and efficient and can be completed in five simple steps – drill into the wall, insert the collar, push in the fixing, tap until flush, and attach the fixture – enabling installers to achieve a secure, high‑strength fixing quickly and confidently.
Primarily developed for domestic environments, Bullfix is suited for securing radiators, shelving units, cabinets, televisions and other heavy wall-mounted fixtures to plasterboard walls. Its high load-bearing capability delivers enhanced safety and durability for both installer and end user.
Plus Series: High‑Performance woodscrews for fast, clean, reliable fixing
The new Plus Series woodscrews deliver speed, strength and a professional finish across softwood, hardwood, MDF and chipboard, with no pre‑drilling required in most applications.
Key features include:
- CE Approved to EN14592 for load‑bearing timber construction.
- Zinc plated & yellow passivated (3–5 microns) for corrosion resistance.
- Reamed mid‑section to reduce driving torque and prevent timber jacking.
- Deep‑cut thread for excellent pull‑out performance.
- Fully threaded up to 40mm for secure clamping.
- Type 17 cut point for fast, accurate starting.
Manufactured from high‑grade C1022 carbon steel and hardened to 550–800HV, the Plus Series offers increased strength and faster installation times. A self‑lubricating coating further reduces torque, minimises splitting and lowers energy use.
In addition to performance, the Plus Series range benefits from sustainable packaging, and the clear, user-friendly labelling ensures immediate product identification and reinforces brand unity across the Q-Crimp portfolio.
Expanded fixings portfolio: New ranges and size extensions
Alongside the hero products, Unicrimp has introduced a wide range of new fixings and size additions, strengthening the breadth of the existing Q‑Crimp Fixings portfolio for both interior and exterior applications.
New additions include:
- High‑performance wood screws (M4 and M5 thread sizes)
- Black round head slotted wood screws
- Metal expansion plugs (various sizes)
- Light CSK self‑drill BZP screws
- 3.5mm slotted flat head countersunk machine BZP screws
- High tensile hex screw sets (M6, M8, M10 thread sizes in multiple lengths)
- White dome screw caps and washers
This significant expansion reinforces Unicrimp’s position as a comprehensive, one‑stop fixings supplier for professional installers.
