Details

Details

The 1200 range wall tie was designed for use on domestic houses and small commercial buildings up to 15 metres in height. It can be used in cavities up to 150mm. The double triangle tie conforms to BS1243 Fig 2

Available in Stainless Steel, lengths range from 150mm to 300mm. Contact our sales department for more information. More technical information is in the product details box below.

Wall ties should be built into each leaf with a minimum embedment of 50mm. However, ACS recommends an embedment of 62.5mm to allow for site tolerances

Technical Data

The ACS 1200 range wire tie is available in grades 304 (BS EN 1.4301) and 316 (BS EN 1.4401) austenitic stainless steel and in lengths from 150mm to 300mm in increments of 25mm. The 1200 range wire tie conforms to BS 1243 which has since been superseded. The wire tie is suitable for buildings up to 15m in height and should be installed at a minimum density of 2.5 ties/m2. ACS recommends that the wire ties are installed with a nominal embedment of 62.5mm, the wire ties can be installed either way round due to the multi-drip feature, which prevents moisture from travelling across the cavity.

Test Results

Testing was undertaken at CERAM Building Technology which proved that the 1200 range wire tie has a measured dynamic stiffness of greater 113MN/m3 in a 100mm cavity and therefore is classed as a Type B tie in Part E of the building regulations.
