Rawlplug – R-TFIX-8M Metal Hammer Fixing

PRODUCT SUMMARY

Rawlplug – R-TFIX-8M Metal Hammer Fixing is a versatile hammer-in facade fixing offering quick, easy and precise installation in all substrates (categories A, B, C, D and E) thanks to its unique sleeve compression zone. The fixing has an increased head diameter, enabling centric hammer driving and improved installation comfort. The additional steel nail offers a reduced point thermal transmittance, decreasing facade heat losses. The fixing’s plate stiffness (value 1.0 kN/mm) is of excellent quality, ensuring a smooth elevation surface and stable insulation system. All the components are pre-assembled, saving time and labour.
