TYP 1 METAL connector

The TYPE 1 METAL connector is a solid and fire-resistant way to connect and hang objects. The Type 1 Metal connector is die-cast from a zinc alloy and fitted with a stainless steel spring. It connects parallel panels and its durability has been verified by an independent institution. It can be configured in a variety of ways to best suit your application, surface mounted or embedded in a panel, and oriented for vertical or horizontal mounting. Providing the screws and subfloor are correctly fitted and all other instructions are followed, independent testing has shown that a vertical panel secured with four Type 1 Metal fasteners can withstand loads of up to 350kg. For critical applications it is necessary to perform your own tests.

TYPE 1 METAL connector where is it used:

• Fireproof panels
• Environments where fire smoke toxicity is a problem
• Applications subject to vibration or shock loads
• Panels that are repeatedly removed

What is BUTTON-FIX?
The Button-fix concept is simple: durable buttons are attached to the back of the board and a matching connector is screwed to the surface of the adjoining board. Then the two plates are placed on top of each other and closed until a “click” sound is heard.
