HCL-711
Anchoring System
WIRE-BOND's HCL-711 Anchoring System installs quickly and easily on
exterior walls with brick veneer while providing positive contact with
metal stud and avoiding damage to wallboard.
With
the metal studs spaced at 16" intervals, the system provides a
16" squared grid. This is accomplished with two easy steps:
- First, 8-foot-wide insulation is installed as a guide from the footer of the wall. The 16" height of the insulation indicates where the next horizontal line of HCL-711s will attach at the vertical line of wallboard fasteners.
-
The insulation is then inlaid snugly between the legs of the uniform
horizontal lines of HCL-711s.
The
"legs" of the HCL-711s provide the platform for the insulation.
This
eliminates potential insulation damage and improves thermal performance.
R value is maintained. The installer does not have to penetrate varying
amounts of insulation while guessing for direct contact with the stud.
The pintles serve to secure the insulation to the exterior wallboard.
The simplified installation procedure saves on labor costs.
The
HCL-711 System moves the dew point from within the stud to near the
outer face of the rigid insulation, reducing potential corrosion at
the
screw locations.
The
HCL-711 has two pointed prongs which pierce wallboard and abut to the
steel stud. The 14-gauge prongs allow little or no compressible movement
where the wallboard may deteriorate.
It is especially useful in high wind environments and seismic areas
D and
E where wallboard is installed between the steel stud and insulation.
It is compatible with the WIRE-BOND Clip System used in seismic zones.
The prongs extend through 5/8" wallboard. Plate "legs"
are available in extensions of 0", 1", 1-1/2", 2",
2-1/2", and 3" to accommodate insulation.
Anchor plates and ties are hot dipped galvanized or stainless steel to meet ACI530 Code requirements for masonry structures. Two screws -- top and bottom -- are recommended when attaching anchor plates to the stud for added strength and stability. It is not necessary to special order extra long screws. Standard shorter screws provide for shorter turn around time and quicker installations.
Packaged 250 pcs/box. HCL anchor plates (14 gauge) and 3/16" adjustable double hooks are available in hot dipped galvanized and stainless steel.
