TYP 2 connector

The TYPE 2 connector is a solid and easy-to-use way to connect and hang items. Button-fix Type 2 is made of nylon, connects the panels at a 90° angle and snaps shut with a simple press. It is ideal for panels with no clearance above or to the side and for applications where easy access is a priority. 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 2 fasteners can withstand loads of up to a maximum weight of 50kg. For critical applications it is necessary to perform your own tests. Each Type 2 requires a force of approximately 7 kg to separate the button from the handle; this must be taken into account when designing the installation and determining safety factors.

TYPE 2 connector where is it used:

• Access panels for plumbing or electrical installations
• Bathtub panels
• Detachable furniture
• Acoustic panels
• Light boxes

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.
