Expamet launches NEW Type 1 Power-Tie

The first product range to be launched as part of Expamet’s new Construction Division is the lightweight Type 1 heavy duty wall tie – ref PT1.

Manufactured from stainless steel 1.4301 to BS EN 10088 standard, the ties are suitable for cavities up to 150mm widths, and can be used for numerous building applications, with no restriction on height. The PT Type 1 expands the range of cavity wall ties already available from Expamet’s power-tie brand.

Each tie has a series of water drips allowing it to be used with both insulated and open cavities. 

They also feature a nominal 62.5mm embedment marking. This ensures correct installation and improves quality control on site. Safety ends also help to reduce the risk of injury when handling and installing.

The power-tie range encompasses a variety of fixings to suit both brick and block construction from cavity wall ties and frame cramps to ladder reinforcement and accessories. ‘power- tie’ is just part of Expamet’s new ‘Construction Division’ which also incorporates BAT Engineering Systems - Windposts and Masonry Supports and Hy-Rib Permanent Formwork
