QuestionHow do you put a screw plug in?Drew Hawkins1Community AnswerStart by putting a drill bit that fits the screw into the drill. Make a pilot hole in the surface so it's deep enough to fit the screw. Then, use your fingers to push the plug into the pilot hole as far as you can. Take a hammer and use it to gently tap the end of the plug until it's all the way in the pilot hole.

QuestionHow much weight can a Rawlplug hold?Drew Hawkins1Community AnswerRawlplugs are rated to withstand weights between 44 lbs (20 kg) and 110 lbs (50 kg). If they start to come out of a surface you can tighten the screw to drive them back into the hole that's holding it. If it cracks or breaks, take it out and replace it with a new one.
