Hi, I want to run fp200 along some brickwork, I wanted to use p clips, but not sure what nails to use that will drive into a brick, could anyone point me in the right direction please?

thanks,

chris

i thought that but it will stick out like a saw thumb plus it's going to take a little longer, does that mean you can't get nails that drive into brick then?
 
Its cooooooolllld out side! Ah never mind, I best charge up my drills tonight then!


Haha. Yes it is cold but you are more North than Milton Keynes so technically to me (from London) a northerner. Hence you should be acclimatised to these harsher conditions.
 
If the cable is more than 2m from floor level its ok to clip, and any drops to call points etc will be to be placed trunking or conduit. Personally I would plumb line it and fit 20mm conduit, with adaptor "t"s to 25mm loop drops. looks a lot neater, and possible quicker to fit.
 
just angle a nail at each end and loop it over?:pirate: i think timco do some small masonary screws, so you wont need plugs. We use them on communal ceilings and it saves time.
