The Metal Hammer Fixing is a dependable fastening system engineered to anchor insulation boards securely to multiple substrate types. Featuring an 8mm diameter with strategically positioned anchoring zones (ABCD: 25mm, E: 45mm), it delivers excellent holding power and accelerates installation timescales.
Intended Uses
These metal hammer fixings are purpose-built for attaching insulation boards to substrates A, B, C, D, and E. The plastic-coated metal pin construction minimises thermal bridging effectively.
Ideal for concrete, brick, and blockwork applications, they work seamlessly with EPS, XPS, and Mineral Wool insulation boards. Where substrate suitability is uncertain, conducting a pull test will confirm adequate load capacity for your EWI system.
