Description

Range of slip ties generally used to restrain the tops of freestanding walls by tying them securely to an overhead structure, thus preventing sideways movement.


Features and benefits:

  • The VIR / VIRH head restraint is designed to resist lateral movement in wall heads, restraining them to structural soffits whilst allowing vertical movement (for instance, to accommodate beam deflection).
  • The VHR is a very simple, economical head restraint product. Twice holed to accommodate 100 or 140 mm walls. Vertical movement can be accommodated only by allowing clearance between the top of the blockwork panel and the underside of the restraint angle. Can also be manufactured to fit 215 mm blockwork.
  • Manufactured from grade 304 stainless steel.
  • Non combustible (as defined in the national Building Regulations).
  • Excellent corrosion resistance and a service life of not less than 60 years.
