EWI Pro - Metal Hammer Fixing - 8mm
The EWI Pro - Metal Hammer Fixing is a versatile fixing suitable for use in all types of substrates. It boasts an 8mm diameter and a concise anchoring zone (ABCD: 25mm, E: 45mm), resulting in superior strength characteristics and a notably quicker installation process.Intended Uses
The EWI Pro - Metal Hammer Fixings are used to fix insulation boards to substrates ABCDE and feature a plastic-coated metal pin, designed to inhibit the development of thermal bridges. These mechanical fixings are suitable for concrete, brick and other blockwork. If in doubt about the suitability of the substrate, it is recommended a pull test is carried out to ensure it is strong enough to support an EWI system. The fixings can be used with EPS, XPS, and Mineral Wool insulation boards.Sizing and Quantities
- 8mm x 75mm (100 fixings per box)
- 8mm x 95mm (100 fixings per box)
- 8mm x 115mm (100 fixings per box)
- 8mm x 135mm (100 fixings per box)
- 8mm x 155mm (100 fixings per box)
- 8mm x 175mm (100 fixings per box)

Application
- Drill a hole directly perpendicular to the surface of the substrate and clear it out.
- Create a countersink recess with a router/cutter for the assembly.
- Position the connector in the hole, ensuring the anchor plate is level with the EWI/ETICS indented layer.
- Install the connector pin by striking it with a hammer.
- Insert a thermo dowel cap.
- Ensure the fixing is correctly positioned and sealed.

Proper sturdy kit. Researched alternatives, the metal pin strength combined with that quick 25mm anchor zone is unbeatable value. Fast in the old blockwork, sets flush perfectly. Won't be wasting cash on other brands again. Top performance and saved labour time.

1-star is purely for the barmy delivery price. Cgarging that much for a simlle box of 8mm hammer dixings is a complete liberty! Mate the postage bill alone nearly ocst alf what the actual plugs did it totally ruined the value. they're not a tonne of decking, it's jusf one box. Seriously putting people off ordering trade kit online. i'll just go to the local yatrd next time, dead cheap by comparison. Don't bother.

brill fixings, but takes some welly to set them. Got the 115mm size and they worked a treat on the brick/XPS setup. Load performance is proper rock solid on the heavy duty sections, which is the main thing, and the coated pin handles the thermal break perfectlyGcan't fault it for security. Dropped a star because the install process was a right faff on. Needed a hefty lump hammer to seat them, and they had a tendency to 'walk' before biting into the hole. The instruction sheet on recessing the cap flush is vague, ended up needing trial-and-error. Also pricey bit of kit compared to others I priced up. That said, quick delivery and the customer service chat confirmed XPS use, so reliable in the end.

This metal fixing is absolutely sound. Used it on old brickwork, the 8mm grabbed perfect and it's not budging a millimeter. It countersunk with next to no fuss and hammering the pin was quick, job sorted. Much faster than alternatives and for the price, its competitive for a quality metal core fixing mate. Chuffed.

Good, reliable fixing. Quick install, and the plastic coating is decent quality—seems to handle the thermal bridging well (despite a tiny scrape I spotted). The hold on the EPS boards to the concrete is rock solid, passed all our pull tests fine. What stops it from being 5 stars is the hassle factor: having to use a separate cutter for the countersink recess is a right pain and a wasted step that others manage to eliminate. The metal plate also didn't sit perfectly flush once recessed. Also got sent the wrong length, which was frustrating, though ironically it worked better for my thickness so I'll let it slide. Price is a bit high, but the durability justifies it mostly.

Spot on kit. 115mm length used, high quality material. Performance is very good, secured the XPS insulation nicely, especially in the concrete areas. The plastic coated pin is the main draw here – saves major faff fitting separate thermal caps, makes the price point fair vs the competition.
It performed quick as advertised, but nailing them into the dense blockwork was tough work (had to adjust the drilling technique). Felt solid but the guide on countersink depth was vague. Was also one fixing short which stalled me on a tricky corner. Good stuff, will buy again.

Awful stuff. Waited ages box soaking wet in the rain and they substituted the lengths I actually ordered wtihout telloing me. The quality control is nonexistent. Pins constantly binding
it cost me half a day getting them flush. The plastic coatign scraped right off the mild steel pins so much for thermal bridge protection now they
re already rusting! And they failed the pull test on dense bick. Total waste of cash and time. Short quantity as well. Rubbish.

tTAL GARBAGE! Absolute waste of my weekend and time. Installed these 8mm fixings into my EWI boards thrn left the adhesive to cure. Next morning (no sun just typical geat off the remder curign) half of them were bowefd/warped completely out of shape! Looks like the metal pins are made of TINFOIL or some inferior, CHEAP stock ythat cannot handle external temperatures. Had to R.I.P. out the lot! Now I'm behind schedule and stuck dealing with tjhis customer service rubbosh. Honestly, stick to glass fibre fixings if you want thermal stability. EWI PRO? More like EWI NO. Utterly NOT fit for purpose. Do not buy this cheap imiytation rubbish.
