A wc pan fixing kit sounds like a small thing, and in terms of size it is. But get it wrong and you are looking at a cracked pan, a wobbly fixture, or a floor fixing that looks like an afterthought. This kit has everything you need to do the job properly the first time, without rummaging through the van for matching parts.
Each kit contains two 6.0 x 80mm hex head slotted coach screws, two 50mm nylon plugs, two 6.0mm nylon bushes and two 18mm cover caps. The nylon bushes are the important detail here. They sit between the coach screw and the porcelain, acting as a cushion so you are not driving hard fixings directly against a surface that has very little forgiveness. Porcelain does not flex. It just cracks. The bushes prevent that.
The cover caps finish the job off cleanly, available in either chrome or white to match your sanitary ware. It is a small thing, but a client notice when a cap is missing or mismatched. The 80mm screw length gives solid purchase into most solid floor substrates, including concrete screed, which is where most bathroom floors end up.
Where This WC Pan Fixing Kit Works
These kits are suited to fixing pans and bidets directly into solid building materials such as concrete and masonry. No need for nylon plugs when fixing into timber floors, the coach screw goes straight in, which simplifies the installation on timber subfloors. The hex head with slotted drive gives you two ways to drive the screw, which is always welcome when you are working in a tight space around a newly positioned pan.
Chrome or White Finish
The cover caps come in both chrome and white, so you can match the finish to the sanitary ware or suite fittings. Order the right colour when you are quoting the job rather than after, saves a second delivery.
A straightforward kit for a straightforward job. Sold individually, so they are worth keeping a few in the kit bag for bathroom and wetroom installs.
Pro Tip: When tightening the coach screws, stop as soon as you feel resistance through the nylon bush rather than torquing to maximum, over-tightening through the bush offers no extra grip but puts real stress on the pan collar.
Used by plumbers, bathroom fitters and general builders when floor-fixing WC pans and bidets to solid substrates. The kit suits concrete screed, sand and cement beds and similar masonry floors commonly found in new builds and bathroom refurbishments. On timber subfloors, the nylon plugs are simply left out and the coach screw drives directly into the joist or board beneath. Useful on domestic bathroom installs, en-suite fits and wetroom projects where a clean, capped finish is expected.

Not suitable for: Not intended for wall-hung WC pans or cistern fixings. The 80mm screw length may not be sufficient where thick tile beds or raised flooring systems are installed.
Mark fixing positions through the pan base, then drill into the floor at the correct diameter for the 50mm nylon plugs. On timber floors, skip the plug and drill a pilot hole sized for the coach screw shank. Slide the nylon bush onto the screw before driving, so the bush sits between the screw head and the pan. Drive the screw with a hex key or slotted driver until snug, then press the cover cap into place over the fixing head.
Position the WC pan or bidet and mark the fixing hole locations through the base onto the floor
Drill fixing holes at the correct diameter to accept the 50mm nylon plugs, or drill pilot holes if fixing into timber
Insert nylon plugs fully into the drilled holes in masonry or concrete, omit plugs on timber subfloors
Slide a 6.0mm nylon bush onto each coach screw before inserting through the pan base
Drive the coach screws down through the pan fixing holes into the plugs or timber below
Tighten until firm, stopping once resistance is felt through the nylon bush to avoid stressing the porcelain
Press the 18mm cover caps over the screw heads to conceal the fixings and complete the finish
Can I use this wc pan fixing kit on a timber floor?
Yes. On timber subfloors you simply leave the nylon plugs out. Drill a pilot hole sized for the coach screw, slide the nylon bush onto the screw, and drive it directly into the joist or floorboard beneath. The bush still protects the pan during tightening.
What is the nylon bush actually for?
The nylon bush sits between the coach screw head and the surface of the pan. Porcelain has no flex at all, so a hard fixing driven directly against it can crack the collar around the hole. The bush distributes the load and cushions the fixing point, which prevents that.
Do the cover caps come in both chrome and white?
Yes, this kit is available in either chrome or white finish. Make sure you select the right colour when ordering to match your sanitary ware, as the caps are the most visible part of the fixing once the pan is installed.
The coach screws are 6.0 x 80mm with a hex head and slotted drive, giving two driver options in restricted spaces. Nylon plugs are 50mm in length, suitable for standard masonry drilling. Nylon bushes are 6.0mm diameter, matched to the screw size. Cover caps are 18mm diameter and press-fit over the fixing head. All components are sized for M6 fixings throughout.
