TV Mount Methods

[noobftw]

I have a Cantilever TV wall bracket (weighs around 10kg) that will be extended out from the wall 25 inches in order to hold a 55" TV weighing 23kg. The wall is solid brick with a sheet of 0.8-inch-thick plasterboard on top. Not sure what to use to mount the bracket to the wall, I have heard all of the below are ok. Would greatly appreciate some advice.

1. Ramplug (Large Grey) and galvanized coach screw
2. Ankascrews
3. Expanding/anchor bolts
4. Shield anchor

My main concern is the added weight on the bracket due to it being fully extended outwards.

I have just fitted one of these and the fixing supplied where 10mm bolts. and plugs. They where rubbish. The plugs split once the bolts went in. I changed them some 13mm and they have worked a treat. https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01AYBLPNA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

13mm rawplugs?

Any idea on the make/model of TV bracket?

If it's something like this one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07S9555SL
then it should be no problem - it's rated to 45kg and has space for more than just 6 bolts, if you want to add additional support. I have a similar mount and no problems with my 50" TV being extended away from the wall and angled at 45 degrees to fit in a corner.

If it's more like this one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Invision-Bracket-Cantilever-Compatibility-Purchase-Black/dp/B0000BU1DE
then I'd be more cautious - as personally think the mounting points screws aren't spread apart enough.


As for fixings, then something like these might be a better idea

The bracket is a VOGEL 545, and it came with 4 80mm coach bolts and large grey plugs. So confused as i really don't think plastic plugs are enough in this instance.

Rigifix for the fixings would be my choice. It’s what I used to mount 65” TV on cantilever. Dot n dab plasterboard over breeze blocks.

I dont have a dot and dab wall, i have a solid brick wall with plasterboard over the top. There is no gap between the wall and the plasterboard.

Its either sleeve anchors or rigifix wallanchors, decisions decisions. The sleeve anchors would probably be more secure, bu those rigifix fittings look easier to work with.

I have exactly the same TV mount . I just did not like the idea of using plastic plugs with that amount of weight with it fully extended :/

I think I will give one of the below a shot and possibly use some glue type substance with it :/

What kind of wall did you put it on, brick and plasterboard?
Also, do you tilt ypur OLED panel downwards?

Would it be best to use the M8 or M6 Regifix version of the kit, I am not 100% sure if my tv bracket holes are even big enough for an M8. FYI, there are 4 holes for mounting, 2 at the top, 1 in the middle and bottom.
My main two concerns are the added weight on the bracket due to it being fully extended outwards. From my maths, it results in around 115kg on each bolt. Secondly, are the bolts going into the brickwork far enough? 90mm for the M6 and 100mm for the M8...

What model tv please?

I find it hard to believe that a 55” tv weighs 23kg unless it’s a very old tv?

All this years OLEDS weight between 17 and 24kg
