Versatile screw-in facade fixing with integral insulation cap. Used for fastening of polystyrene (EPS) boards, mineral wool, and polyurethane (PU) boards.

Advantages-application:

• accurate countersunk setting - automatically sets the fixing flush with the insulation layer
• integrated insulation cap (with unique surface reinforcement) equalizes thermal conductivity over the fixing point, whilst also leveling out drying times of render
• unique sleeve compression zone for precision installations
• simple countersunk installation in all substrates (A, B, C, D, E)
• the long plastic over moulding on the TFIX-8ST screw minimizes thermal bridging (value 0.001-0,002W/K), contributing to energy-saving benefits
• the shortest embedment depth at the maximum strength parameters
• unique design allows for high load-bearing capacities. This reduces the quantity of fixings required per square meter of insulation
• plate stiffness (value 0.6 kN/mm) ensures smooth elevation surface and stable insulation system
• pre-assembled elements of the fixing saves time and labor

Approved for:

• concrete C12/15-C50/60 (Use category A)
• solid brick (Use category B)
• solid sand-lime brick (Use category B)
• hollow brick (Use category C)
• hollow sand-lime brick (Use category C)
• hollow lightweight concrete block (Use category C)
• vertically-perforated clay block (Use category C)
• lightweight concrete block (Use category C)
• reinforced components of lightweight aggregate concrete (Use category D)
• aerated concrete block (Use category E)

Application:

• External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS);
• Polystyrene (EPS) boards;
• Mineral wool;
• Polyurethane (PU) boards.

Installation tips:

• drill a hole of required diameter and depth
• lightly tap the plastic sleeve through the insulation material into hole with a hammer, until fixing depth is reached
• when using the TFIX-8ST-TOOL setting tool (can be found in the accessories section) the teeth should be embedded in the insulation material after hammering
• embedment depth of min 25mm in A, B, C, D materials and 65mm in Aerated Concrete Block
• drilling depth of min 40mm in A, B, C, D materials and 80mm in Aerated Concrete Block
