Wall tie for glued brickwork 02.05.08
Add to my wish listThe masonry hook features a twisted tip for anchoring in the interior wall using a PVC dowel and a flattened rippled tip for anchoring in the exterior wall in glued blocks or thin joint masonry bricks.
•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. Ensure that the flat ripple is positioned horizontally.
- 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.
