Application

Designed to reduce the effect of thermal bridging through ACS Stainless Steel products and concrete and/or steel framing.

Description

The ACS thermal shim is designed to reduce the effects of thermal bridging through ACS stainless steel masonry support when used with concrete or steel framing. The system consists of a 3 mm thick fibre reinforced composite

shim that acts to isolate the bracket from the primary structure. It has a compressive strength comparable to that of stainless steel and has a thermal conductivity less than 0.35 W/mK, a factor around 50 times less than that of stainless steel.


Features and benefits:

  • Low thermal conductivity.
  • High compressive strength.
  • Easy Installation.
  • Available to suit any ACS bracket.
