Rawlplug TX40 setting tool with integrated disc for countersunk installation of screw-in fixing R-TFIX-8SX

Features and benefits:

• Allows quick installation of R-TFIX-8SX without the need to mill the material thermal insulation
• Facilitates and speeds up surface preparation for the final finish of the façade
• A support plate with a diameter increased to 120 mm prevents the tool from sinking into the thermal insulation material and eliminates the possibility of pulling the fastener through the insulation
• Perfectly matched TX40 tip with a socket screw allows easy and stable installation in any conditions
• Robust construction for increased service life
• Fastener assembly using a tool and the use of polystyrene cap (R-TFIX-CAP63-EPS) or mineral wool cap (R-TFIX-CAP63-MW) allows to minimize the point thermal permeability of the fasteners

Applications and substrates:

External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) - polystyrene (EPS) boards and mineral wool (MW) boards

Installation guide:

• Drill a hole of required diameter and depth. Drilling depth of min 35mm in A,B,C,D materials and 75mm in aerated concrete block
• Clean drilled hole 3 times
• Insert R-TFIX-TOOL-CSMP into recess in head moulding of R-TFIX-8SX screw
• Insert the fixing into the drilled hole
• Bottom side of the plate must be flush with the ETICS
• Embedment depth of min 25mm in A,B,C,D materials and 65mm in aerated concrete block
• Apply steady axial pressure, ensuring the disc of the setting tool is kept perpendicular to the fixing axis
• Steadily drive in the screw with high revs until fixing is secure (when disc touches insulation surface)
