Versatile screw-in facade fixing with high performance in all base materials recommended for ETICS

Technical Data Sheet

R-TFIX-8S Universal facade fixings - Technical Data Sheet

Features and benefits

Quick and easy installation in all substrates (categories A,B,C,D,E)
Unique sleeve compression zone for precision installations.
The long plastic overmoulding on the R-TFIX-8S screw minimises thermal bridging (value 0,001-0,002W/K), contributing to energy-saving benefits
Plate stiffness (value 0.6 kN/mm) ensures smooth elevation surface and stable insulation system.
Unique design allows for high load-bearing capacities. This reduces the quantity of fixings required per square metre of insulation
The shortest embedment depth at the maximum strength parameters
Pre-assembled screw saves time and labour.

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 driver bit into recess in head moulding of R-TFIX-8S screw.
Insert the fixing into the drilled hole.
After inserting the fixing in the hole, the plate should be pressed against the thermal insulation surface.
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).
