Wall tie with a twisted end 02.05.03
Add to my wish listThe masonry hook is straight and has a twisted end to anchor into the carrier structure by means of a PVC dowel. The hook is anchored into the facing masonry by folding the other straight end.
It is highly recommended to use the drift punch to avoid bending the hook 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.<br/>•Eurocode recommends using stainless steel masonry hooks (MX3 exposure class).<br/>•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)

- Drill a hole in the interior wall, 6 mm diameter and 60 mm minimum depth.
- Clean the hole (if applicable using a blowgun) and insert the dowel.
- Using an appropriate driving punch and a hammer, drive the twisted tip of the hook into the dowel, down to the bottom of the hole.
- If applicable, add an insulator fastening clip directly against the insulator.
- Fold the tip of the hook using the hook pliers.
- Install the anchoring hooks with a slope descending towards the facing wall, allowing water to flow outward, or add a drop breaking washer on the hook before the installation.
