Heckmann Building Products Inc. Melrose Park, III. Pos-I-Tie Wing Nut Brick Veneer Anchoring System
The Pos-I-Tie wing nut is a two-piece anchoring system that installs with a standard 5/16" nut driver. The wing portion is then adjusted to form the proper seal against the sheathing, thus preventing moisture penetration to the backup. The barrel makes a positive contact with the backup transferring all tension and compression forces to the backup and not to the sheathing. A double-pronged pintle tie is then inserted for placement in the brick veneer. The wing nut screws are available in six different lengths. For more information, please call (800) 621-4140, e-mail info@heckmann buildingprods.com, or visit www.heckmannbuilding prods.com.
EMSEAL Joint Systems Ltd. Westborough, Mass. COLORSEAL Silicone and Impregnated Foam Sealant
COLORSEAL is a unique, pre-compressed, hybrid, silicone- and impregnated-foam sealant. Designed for structures made of concrete, brick and stone, as well as curtain wall and metal cladding systems, COLORSEAL overcomes the fatigue and potential cohesion failure of liquid sealants by combining factory-applied and cured silicone bellows with an impregnated expanded foam sealant backing.
The silicone used in COLORSEAL remains pliant, UV stable and watertight over time and temperature gradient. COLORSEAL features non-invasive anchoring, has an R-value of approximately 3.28 per inch of depth, and the foam seal is watertight after a single material installation. For more information call (800) 526-8365 or visit www.emseal.com.
