Ancon Cast-in Channels
Verified by manufacturer 6 months ago
A range of simple self-anchoring slots for accepting restraint fixings to large capacity channels with integral anchors.
Application
Suitable for providing fixing locations for masonry support systems and the range of windposts and cladding ties.
Description
The Ancon range of cast-in channels includes 21/18 - Omega, 28/15, 30/20 and 38/17.
Features and benefits:
- Fixing to channels is by 'T' head bolts. Tapped plate washers can be used as an alternative to 'T' bolts where non-standard bolt lengths or diameters are required.
- Ancon wall ties can be used with 28/15, 30/20 and 38/17 channels.
- Ancon Cast-in Channels have been independently tested to the current British Standard BS 5080, Parts 1 and 2.
- The anchor shapes of Ancon Channels are outside current European Technical Assessment documents and therefore these products cannot be CE marked.
- Channels with ‘T’ head bolts, which provide fixing locations for Ancon masonry support systems and the Ancon range of windposts, retention of the standard range of either brickwork or cladding ties or special purpose-made components (see manufacturer's Ties and Restraints product catalogue) and use as a framing medium to retain flat or curved cladding, or for carrying services supports.
