An expansible wall plug consisting of a slotted metal sleeve which engages a portion of its length into the article to be fastened, and an expansible portion which may be expanded by driving in a fastening screw. The expansible wall plug may be expanded using a fastening screw having a wood screw thread, because the expansible body consists of a plastic material and is provided with a tapered cavity and is slotted over a portion of its length. At least a portion of the length of the expansible body is inserted into the expansible portion of the metal sleeve, and is locked in a position in which the slot plane of the expansible body is aligned with the slot plane of the metal sleeve by way of projections on the periphery of the expansible body engaging recesses on the periphery of the metal sleeve.
