Application

Suitable for securing plywood/ insulation composite boards to timber joists in flat roof installations.

Description

Zinc-coated steel helical nails for use in flat roof constructions.


Features and benefits:

  • Helical nails are a quick and reliable fixing for use in warm roof applications.
  • Unlike traditional nails, they rotate as they are driven in, inducing a self-tapping action and consequently do not split or bounce timbers.
  • Manufactured from zinc coated steel in three standard lengths - other lengths are available in increments of 5 mm.
  • Standard lengths suit panel depths from 85–160 mm.
  • The 18 mm diameter head simplifies installation.


Fixing:

- Rate:

  • The nails should be installed at a rate of 6.9 per square metre, using a hammer.
  • Minimum embedment in the joist: 35 mm.


- Recommended axial spacing:

  • 400 mm joist centres: 400 x 600 mm.
  • 600 mm joist centres: 600 x 400 mm.
