Description

AirTwist™ is a new high speed frame fixing that nails timber battens, frames and wall plates to Aircrete without any need to pre-drill or to plug and screw.

Using a neat SDS setting tool these lost-head nails are hammered directly through the timber and into all types of Aircrete blocks. Work-hardened helical blades force the tie to cut a self-tapping helical thread as installation proceeds.

Benefits

The slim helical form of the AirTwist lost-head nail alleviates timber-splitting and offers a mechanical interlock anchorage that exerts no expansive crushing stress into the Aircrete..

The performance advantage offered by the Thin Joint Wall Tie stems its engineered twisting accuracy (Patent EP1307303), which forms an unrivalled tightly mating interlock within the Aircrete to provide superior performance.
