OUR PRODUCT

Channels & Fixings range.

These products allow vertical movement whilst offering horizontal restraint.

The channel system tends to be face-fixed whilst the slot is usually cast into concrete. These systems may be used to overcome differences in coursing between masonry leaves.The products in this section offer the end-user the ability to connect our restraint products to various substrates, metalwork and timbers. Selection of the correct product depends on the application and strengths required for the overall strength of our products in situ. Careful consideration should be given to ensure the right fixing is used.

The Restraint Channel System effectively ties an outer masonry leaf to light steel, concrete or timber frame through insulation. It allows vertical movement at the same time as offering lateral restraint. The system comprises stainless steel channels, wall ties, fixings and compression sleeves (for use when fixing to concrete, timber and large insulation thicknesses).

The steel frame channel system is designed to tie brickwork to steel studding. self-drill / self-tap screws fix through the channel and insulation into the steel studding.

Cast in dovetail slot, available in stainless steel, pre filled with polystyrene (to prevent concrete ingress). Used in conjunction with ties to restrain brickwork.
