Thanks to your reponses I bought replacement fixings from
Screwfix -
£4.40+ for five as opposed to Focus, which is much closer, who
charged
£9+ for two.

What size were they Harry? SF part number?

M8 x 10 - 85762

I could think of was I already had holes drilled of a set size and
just wanted to get back and finished, so obviously wasn't thinking

I'm a recent convert to the epoxy or polyester resin anchors. I had a
piece of machinery (*) that repeatedly pulled out of a concrete floor
despite very sizable expanding anchors - problem totally solved by a
tube of polyester anchor fixing and a length of ordinary studding, and
existing hole size was easily accomodated.
