Pack of 10 x 6mm x 1 Metre Stainless Steel HELICAL Bars for Repairing Masonry Walls

Product Information

As owners and creators of a growing portfolio of best in class buildings, we are very aware of the considerable part the built environment has to play in carbon emissions and waste generation. We are therefore committing to ambitious yet realistic targets to ensure that our activity is having the lowest possible impact and where possible, making a positive contribution both socially and environmentally. His expert knowledge spans all products and systems that we sell at Permagard, including internal and external waterproofing, structural repair and green roofs. We create sustainable and inspiring workplaces which are technologically smart, rich in amenities and promote employee wellbeing. Helical bars are stainless steel reinforcing rods. Power rollers squeeze the rod to alter its shape. The shaped rod twists through a die to form a helix. The cold working doubles the rod's tensile strength. The twisting makes the bar more ductile. What are Helical Bars used for?

Helical Bars for Crack Stitching Brick Walls How to Fit Helical Bars for Crack Stitching Brick Walls

Mix the powder and liquid components of WHO-60 grout and load the mixture into an applicator before pumping a bead of the specialist grout from the rear of the slots and fill them half to two thirds full. YOU SHOULD REPEAT THIS PROCESS FOR THE SECOND LEVEL. THE SECOND LEVEL IS CREATED BY CUTTING ANOTHER SLOT FOUR COURSES ABOVE THE FIRST USING EXACTLY THE SAME METHOD. At Permagard, we’ve been manufacturing innovative structural repair products for over 25 years. As an independent helical bar manufacturer, we work hard to remain market leaders and ensure compliance with all standards.Gregg is the Technical Operations Manager at Permagard and one of our experts. With more than 15 years’ experience in the damp proofing and waterproofing industry, he has the practical knowledge and professional expertise to provide the support you need. Helical spiral bars also provide extra strength in footings, parapets and retaining walls. They can be used during new construction or remedial work in existing buildings. Helical bars when used for lintel repairs are available in three and seven metre lengths. These longer lengths allow the bars to extend beyond the window or door by the required 500mm. You can also cut the longer lengths to the exact size required. The best way to do this is with an inspection to appraise if there are sufficient walls ties. With a cavity wall, you should be able to carry out a visual inspection, looking between the inner and outer leaves. If you are unable to get a good view of the existing wall ties and their frequency then you canuse a metal detectoror an endoscope camera.

The Easi-Fix Helical Drive Tie has been labelled as the more reliable and faster way to tie facades together. The ties can also be installed through cavity wall insulation, providing high strength and flexibility. Although the job may sound expensive, the installations costs are relatively low. We recommend thixotropic WHO60 ®, which is a cement-based grout featuring added polymers.The BRE Load Tables are specific to the proprietary helical bars tested and bonded into walls with this purpose-made mortar. Shrink-compensated, the grout effortlessly bonds the bars to the masonry, setting in and around the deep troughs of the helix and delivering compressive strength combined with some flexibility, which safeguards against sudden failures when overloaded. Helical bars are buried into slots made in the wall surface. The slots are typically orientated horizontally along the face of the wall and the bars are bonded to the masonry using a high performance polymer modified grout. What are the applications for helical bars? Helifix HeliBar Remedial Helical stainless steel reinforcing bar for masonry repair and new construction We have broken down the installation into simple easy to follow steps. The installation method outlined below applies to both window and door lintels. It is strongly recommended that you install helical bars at two levels above the failed lintel.Twistfix only supplies helicalbars produced with this advanced engineering.The upgraded bars areproduced in the UK's only manufacturing facility that, under one roof,takes in round wire and sends out finished helical products. Other manufacturers merely part-process pre-shaped wire thathas been cold roll-profiledby a third party. The helix shape rod is excellent for bed joint reinforcement. The helix's peaks and troughs boost the bar's grip in mortar. Helical bars are helpful for various masonry repairs.
