Murgrip is a stainless steel masonry hook to be punched into a reinforced concrete structure. The double ripple at the end of the hook is designed for optimum anchoring without using a dowel.
Scope of application: Anchoring facing masonry in the case of a double wall with a structure in reinforced concrete.
It is highly recommended to use the drift punch to avoid bending the Murgrip when fastening it.
• The length is determined by the width of the gap in the hollow wall. Ensure the masonry hooks are anchored deeply enough at both ends.
• Eurocode recommends using stainless steel masonry hooks (MX3 exposure class).
•Quantity: as specified by the stability engineer (Calculation imposed by Eurocode 6 - NBN EN 1996-1-1 with a minimum 5 p/m² as per the Belgian National Annex)
- Drilling a hole in reinforced concrete, 6 mm diameter and 60 mm minimum depth.
- Place the rippled side of the hook in the hole.
- Punch the hook to the bottom of the hole, using a hammer and the appropriate driving punch.
- If applicable, add an insulating fixed clip directly against the insulator.
- Fold the tip of the hook using the hook pliers.
- Install the anchoring hooks tilted outward to avoid water from passing towards the loadbearing wall, or add a drop breaking washer on the hook before the installation.
