Which screw, 12 chipboard+13 drywall hanging curtain rod

[Husköpare]

Hello,
What screw do I need for the curtain rail in the ceiling, and for mounting a TV on the wall:

Ceiling - plasterboard 13
Wall - chipboard 12+ plasterboard 13

Probably a simple question for many, but not for me ;-)

What do the things weigh?

What do the items weigh?

Good question, don't know...

In the ceiling. Molly plug for single drywall, as large as possible.

On the wall, it depends on the thickness of the bracket, but a 5x40 rounded wood screw should work well, alternatively, something longer if it's a thicker bracket.

I would probably have preferred a metal expander designed for double boards.
So that the chipboard can also take the load.
Like this one:

Yes, it probably fits the TV, but maybe we should use something else for the curtain rail?

Sure, if it’s not heavy stuff. But it also depends on how many fixings there will be.
It actually needs to hang from the ceiling.
Use a standard screw that is long enough to go all the way through and grip well into the chipboard.
Diameter approximately 5 mm.

Take a regular screw that is long enough to go through well and grip into the particleboard.
Diameter about 5 mm.

He only has single plasterboard in the ceiling. Hence molly for single plasterboard. On the wall, of course, you would use a wood screw if you have particleboard behind.

He only has single gypsum in the ceiling. Hence, molly for single gypsum. On the wall, of course, you use a wood screw if you have chipboard behind.

OK, I read a bit carelessly.
