Hi, looking to fix an Upright 1800 x 490 3 colum radiator to a 62mm Thermaboard (Celotex) as its 12mm Gyproc then 50mm insulation can anyone advise the best fixings to use to securely fix to wall. - cheers

Through the celotex and into wall behind.

100mm Gyproc screw ?

Through the celotex and into wall behind.

Are there any decent fixing for Celotex

If you can't get a fixing to go all the way through to something substantial then I would be cutting a hole and fitting some timber behind.

i would use para-bolts into plasterboard then glue brackets to wall, or 6mm through rod into wall with bag of epoxy pellet or knob off 5'' 14's screw n plugs- then glue bracket to wall
