For demanding applications where performance cannot be compromised
Ideal for use with fire-retardant panels, the Type 1 Metal is a versatile, high-performance fastener. Its reliability has been independently proven through rigorous strength, shock loading and vibration tests.
Both parts of the connector are diecast in ZL2 zinc alloy and fitted with a 316 stainless-steel spring. As a general guide, four Button-fix Type 1 Metal fasteners on a vertical panel will support loads weighing up to a maximum of 350kg (770lbs), provided that the screws and substrate are properly matched and all other installation instructions are complied with. Manufactured in the UK.
In demanding applications where proven performance is required, Button-fix Type 1 Metal is the one to use.
Typical uses include:
Fire-retardant panels
Environments where fire smoke toxicity is a concern
Maritime and other transport interiors
Applications subject to vibration or shock loading
Panels that are repeatedly removed
