Stirrups, curves and tie connections

thermal conductivity is one of the main characteristics of flexible connections: the lower the value of thermal conductivity, the less flexible connection passes heat and does not form so-called “cold bridges” – the location of fittings in the wall through which heat loss occurs, condensation forms.

Advantages Types of flexible links Design characteristics
  • Low heat transfer.
  • High degree of corrosion protection and resistance to the external environment.
  • Low density.
  • Service life and reliability.
  • Financial benefit.
  • Fire safety.
Composite flexible ties with two marked cylindrical-conical anchoring sections

Flexible connections with a continuous sand cover and anchor broadenings are designed to connect the inner, heat-insulating and facing layers as part of three-layer stone, brick and combined walls - structures of any degree of responsibility.

Flexible connections for masonry

Flexible ties with a diameter of 6 mm are designed to connect the inner, heat-insulating and facing layers of brickwork. They can be used for attaching a facing layer of small-piece material and insulation to a base of large-format ceramic blocks.


Flexible connections for insulating monolithic buildings

Flexible ties with a diameter of 6 mm, with a dowel sleeve at one end, are designed to connect a monolithic load-bearing wall with a facing layer through insulation. If necessary, it is possible to create a ventilated gap.

Flexible connections for the production of blocks "TEPLOSTEN"

Flexible ties represent a basalt-plastic rod with a diameter of 4 mm with a continuous sand cover, intended for connecting layers in heat-efficient blocks of the "TEPLOSTEN" type.

 

 

Flexible ties are fiberglass or basalt-plastic reinforcing rods of circular cross-section, covered with a continuous layer of quartz sand or having a sand coating at the ends of the flexible tie. Thanks to the sandy coating, which has good adhesion to the masonry mortar, the flexible bond is securely fixed in the masonry. In addition, the sand coating significantly increases the corrosion resistance of the bond surface in the alkaline environment of the concrete.
