New fixing for securing cables added to SWIFIX range


S


WIFIX are delighted to announce the addition of a new fixing to their range, for securing cabling and trunking for Satellite dish installation and small pipework, back to external wall insulation systems. Sky originally approached SWIFIX after they had seen the newly developed Sky bracket fixing a few years previously. Since then, Sky’s engineering department (TPAS) and


SWIFIX have worked together to develop a surface fixing to provide a secure connection, that also remains water tight, as they were dissatisfied with the existing solution. Two years in development, both the bracket and cable fixing have been rigorously tested by Sky, with samples produced prior to full production. The new spiral cable connector is an innovative way of securing cabling back through EWI without affecting the integrity of the EWI system and protects guarantees and warranties. As with all SWIFIX fixings, the spiral cable connector is suitable for all system finishes from textured and rough-cast/dashing and through all types of insulation types and thicknesses of 50 mm to 300 mm. As well as the bracket and cable connectors being approved by Sky, other fixings have NHBC approval, as well as being recommended by numerous EWI system designers and installers for securing any item from bird netting, external lights and

rainwater goods to air source heat pumps and canopies.


Products are manufactured in the UK using recycled materials and are available in black and white as standard; however bespoke colours are available to compliment the finished render if required. The new spiral cable connector is available direct from SWIFIX and approved outlets.
