Vertical Control Gap Tie

Description

Ensure the longevity of your masonry with this sliding tie, which creates a vertical control gap. This gap allows for vertical in-plane expansion up to 20mm in brick and block walls. The tie doesn't just enable movement; it also secures masonry against lateral wind loads and features a de-bonding slide that effectively manages and absorbs differential movement, preventing internal stresses.
