These come with stickers on each bracket saying you must use a #10 screw, but the holes are countersunk to comfortably fit a #8 screw... a #10 the head sticks out a bit. Is there a reason for the strange requirement or not?
Hello there,
This product says #10 screw as it provides the strongest fixing to the wall, using a smaller screw may have an effect on the max weight that can be placed on the shelf.
Thank you for using Screwfix Q&A.
