PRODUCT SUMMARY

Rawlplug R-TFIX-8S Metal Screw Fixing is a versatile screw-in facade fixing with high performance in all base materials. It offers quick, easy and precise installation in all substrates (categories A, B, C, D and E) with its unique sleeve compression zone. The long plastic moulded over the screw minimises thermal bridging, making it energy efficient. Its plate stiffness (value 0.6 kN/mm) ensures a smooth elevation surface and stable insulation system. The unique design also supports high load-bearing capacities, reducing the quantity of fixings required per square metre of insulation. The screw comes pre-assembled to suit your time-saving needs.
