Application

Ladder‐type steel meshwork for use as bed‐joint reinforcement in masonry constructions.

Description

Apollo II is a certified and tested bed joint reinforcement product, designed specifically to increase the flexural and tensile strength of masonry walls.


Manufactured in stainless steel, this high-quality solution allows for maximum coverage, high bond strength, and ultimate peace of mind. CE marked to EN 845‐3.


Offers two unique design features; a flattened ribbed profile and in-line welded cross wires.

  • The unique, flattened, and profiled main structural wires help to improve bond performance compared with traditional smooth wires, allowing for maximum coverage and anchorage in use.
  • The Apollo II’s cross wires, which are sized at 2.75mm diameters, are welded in-line to avoid steel build problems and to create a very robust and durable reinforcement strip.

When combined, these unique design features are responsible for the improved performance of Apollo II. The bond strength is up to 90% stronger than others on the market.


Available in a comprehensive range of widths, materials, and sizes.

  • Available in 5 different main wire diameters – 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0 mm.
  • Available in 4 product widths to suit UK brick and block sizes.
  • Supplied in 2.7 m long strips with 20 strips per pack.
