[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 1114986, member: 175057"] A bit of each, but I had a few mounts in Reading where the local brick is very soft and sleeve anchors eventually came loose in exposed locations, so refixed them with the Hilti plugs, no problems since. And a little extra, occasionally I am called in to refix a set of T&Ks which are pulling away from the wall, so instead of taking the whole rig down, I drill a new hole on the bracket with oone of the DeWalt cobalt drills, [URL="https://www.screwfix.com/p/dewalt-hex-shank-cobalt-hss-drill-bits-10-x-133mm/7459v"]DeWalt Hex Shank Cobalt HSS Drill Bits 10 x 133mm[/URL] followed up with the 10mm masonary bit and then push a Hilti plug through, the coach bolt then pulls the bracket up to the wall and I can put chemical fixings in the old hole or holes where they've come away. Also useful if you want to add an extra anchor point, never hurts. [/QUOTE]
