EZIFIX SpecialistAdhesives:Ezifix
Ezifix is a high performance adhesion system which creates bonds between a range of surfaces. With the ability to drastically cut down on installation times and reducematerial costs it represents a solution that consultants and projectmanagersmust consider. A proven, safemethod to fix cables, conduits, insulation and light piping to most surfaces in lieu of traditional drill/screwed fixings, the Ezifix systemis a range of very high bond adhesive fasteners that are applied to flat surfaces, used in conjunction with a spray on sealant and application tool. Due to its strong adhesive properties it eliminates the need for drilling/screwing and the associated noise and dust. The range includes: cable ties, saddle bases, pipeclips, threaded bases and insulation spikes.
Ezifix is being used in numerous different applications, andmore are discovered and established regularly, and as it does not require substantial training Ezifix is ideal for large installation teams. Industries that have embracedEzifix havedemonstrably improvedtheirprofits onprojects,whilst reducingexposure of installation teams to the threats that drilling equipment can present, such as dust inhalation, vibration white finger, accidents involving injury fromdropped drilling equipment coming into contact with people.
Adhesive fasteners for building services supports can remove the need to drill or shot-fire fixings into the structure. Once the surface has been primed, the adhesive pad can be fixed quickly and easily to steel, concrete, glass andmost surfaces provided they are flat, smooth, dry and clean. Adhesive fasteners have a SWL from5kgto 15kg. The systemisquick, quiet andeasy to install, usingthepurposedesignedapplication tools.An extensionpole canbe usedto fix the supports to the slabwithout climbingladders.Surfacebonding of the adhesive fasteners avoids the need for structural penetration. Ideal for supporting general, lightweight services includingsmalldiameterpipework upto 50mm, 20-25mmconduit andelectrical,data andfire cables up to 30mm. The performance of this product is largely independent of operator skill.Minimal training is required, but themanufacturer’s instructions must be adhered to. Ensure that the contact surface is sound, clean and dry. The acrylic adhesive used is a 3Mvery high bond adhesive which has been usedin various applications, freeway signs,glass curtainwalls, aircraftwings, truck, coach bodies and ambulances for over 30 years without failure. This VHB has been tested extensively and shows an 8%gain in strength over an 11 year period. Adhesive fasteners are not suitable for use on painted or plasterboardsurfaces. The acrylic adhesive andglass fillednylonbodies have excellent chemical resistant properties so the fasteners are largely suitable in corrosive environments such as marine, chemical treatment plants and sewage treatment plants. Ezifix fasteners can be used in ambient temperatures of -40°C to 90°C. This means fasteners are ideal for installing services through cold rooms, particularly as they avoid penetrations in sandwich panel walls.
