Thermal insulation fixings should be suitable for the thickness of the board they are applied to. There are several types of thermal insulation fixings to choose from. These include Fischer universal insulation anchors, Fischer DIPK insulation render fixings PVC, Twistfix insulation fixings, and CELO insulation fixings.
Fischer universal insulation anchors
Fischer universal insulation anchors can be used in the construction of buildings and structures, which require thermal isolation. These anchors are used in building applications to bridge insulation layers of up to 60 mm thick. Their design features a glass-fibre reinforced polymer thermal separation module and an electroplated stock screw for installation in building materials.
The Fischer universal insulation anchor is an energy-efficient and fast fixing system for thermal insulation panels. They can be used in many different materials and offer secure and reliable holding. They are particularly useful when fixing soft insulation materials. They come with a special underhead plate to reduce the insertion torque during countersunk installation. In addition, the round cap covers the screw fixing, allowing a plaster layer to be applied without the plaster showing through.
These fixings are available in two different sizes. The 90mm version, LMX10, is highly durable and impact resistant. They can be used for a wide range of substrates, including plastic and metal. Fischer universal insulation anchors are compatible with various insulation types and are designed for use with both rigid and flexible insulation boards.
Unlike conventional construction methods, Fischer universal insulation anchors are multifunctional, allowing them to be used for fastening insulating panels in any building material class. This makes them perfect for the construction of new buildings and subsequent thermal insulation in existing buildings. You can even use them to secure insulating panels in renovated buildings.
Fischer DIPK insulation render fixings PVC
Fischer DIPK insulation render fixings PVC are a quick and simple way to secure high-quality PVC or PU panels. They have a white plug sleeve with an integrated plate and can be used with a range of building materials, including PU and wood wool lightweight panels. They also reduce heat transmission and prevent marks on plaster surfaces.
Fischer Twistfix insulation fixings
Whether the insulation is for a new construction or for an existing building, fischer Twistfix insulation fixings are suitable for a variety of substrates. The TermoZ CS II screw fixing, for example, is approved for use in masonry, concrete, lightweight aggregate concrete and aerated concrete. Its symmetric expansion zone and symmetric design minimize insertion torque and offer optimal adhesion to plaster. The closed plate prevents dirt ejection and ensures a clean setting result.
Whether installing a new building or retrofitting an existing one, insulation fixings can be an essential element in the construction process. Fischer Twistfix insulation fixings are available for various types of insulation, including mineral wool, polystyrene and foam. These fasteners are available in a range of sizes, so they will fit any insulation thickness.
Designed for use with insulation, Fischer Twistfix insulation fixings are quick and simple to install. They feature a minimum anchorage depth of 35 mm and can be used on various thermal insulation panels. This fixing also requires less drilling and reduces the risk of pipeline mishaps.
CELO insulation fixings
CELO insulation fixings are designed to ensure the highest level of thermal insulation and are compliant with fire safety standards. They are made of high-quality nylon dowels manufactured in Germany and can be used in a variety of applications. In order to provide maximum thermal insulation, they are installed in a specific way so that they do not create thermal bridges.
CELO insulation fixings are ideal for the installation of rigid insulation boards in between timbers. They provide spring-like action that will grip the board firmly in place. When installing these insulation boards, it is important to make sure that they are firmly secured in place without overly straining the plasterboard finish.
INDEX AIS-C insulation fixings
The INDEX AIS-C thermal insulation fittings range offers secure attachment to a wide range of base materials. They are suitable for all types of insulation panels and applications and are approved to the highest standards. The fixings are designed to work with ETICS (External Insulation Composite System), a system that is adapted to complex building geometry and resolves most thermal bridges.
INDEX AIS-C thermal insulation fittings are approved for external thermal insulation composite systems. Their design is ideal for attaching panels to walls, ceilings, and floors. They are designed to resist the weight and force generated by the insulation material and panel’s dimensions.
