Or revert to the well tested and tried plan B: Drill the 10mm hole, cut
a
square piece of wood slightly bigger than depth and diameter of hole, cut

small lead-in taper on the end, bang timber plug into wall, cut off to

It used to be quite common.
I even used old pencils as plugs.
I have seen wooden wedges used for frame fixings for doors and windows too.
