Frame Cramps

Ancon Gauge Tape features the standard 225mm brick/block gauge and clearly indicates the fixing position of frame cramps. It is applied directly to the structural frame. Frame cramps are fixed where indicated and masonry is built with each course aligned to the 75mm, 150mm or 225mm lines of the tape

The Ancon HiT fixes masonry to concrete, dense blocks (7N/mm_), non-perforated brick or hard stone. Use of the HiT can reduce the variety of tie lengths required on site and speed the rate of construction.

The ISO-TW washer enables Ancon slot-ended frame cramps to be vertically adjusted within the 30mm range of the slot to suit the exact location of mortar joints without affecting the integrity of the fixing. In addition, this washer prevents bi-metallic corrosion by separating the frame cramp from the structural frame and fixing screw.

Frame cramps can be fixed to concrete, steelwork or masonry and have a single 7mm diameter hole (SDB) or an 8mm x 30mm vertical slot (SDV).Ancon M6 single expansion bolts are recommended for fixing to concrete and M6 set screws or SDTSS-38-5PT self-drilling screws for fixing to steelwork. Frame cramps can be fixed to masonry with suitable plugs and screws or resin anchors.

Where masonry is in line with a column flange,æa notched wall tie is used in conjunction with aæbespoke angle section to allow the mechanicalæfixing to be suitably located. This system isæreferenced SPA. The angle section featuresæa 7mm fixing hole as standard and a slot toæaccept the wall tie.

The Teplo-L-Tie is ideal where a low thermal conductivity restraint fixing is required between a masonry outer leaf and an in-situ structure. It offers all the same benefits as the originalÊTeploTieÊbasalt fibre cavity wall tie with an additional stainless steel upstand which is mechanically and chemically bonded to one end of the tie to allow for a secondary fixing.
