Thermal 2-Seal Wing Nut Anchor Only, 2X-HOOK Sold Separately 

The Thermal 2-Seal Wing Nut Anchor is an advanced, single screw veneer tie designed for use in steel, concrete, CMU, and wood stud construction. It features a dual-diameter barrel with factory-installed EPDM washers, ensuring a sealed connection to both the face of the insulation and the air/vapor barrier. The anchor includes Thermal Wings, designed to reduce thermal transfer through rigid insulation. These wings are made from steel encapsulated in flame-resistant plastic, providing a thermal break. The Thermal 2-Seal is adaptable for seismic zones and can easily be adjusted for variations in wall thickness.

Features

• Thermal Efficiency: Designed with Thermal Wings that create a thermal break to reduce heat loss
• Dual-Diameter Barrel: Includes EPDM washers for a secure seal around insulation and air/vapor barrier
• Highly Flame Resistant: Thermal Wings are made from flame-resistant plastic encapsulated steel
• High Strength: Tested to withstand over 200-lbf in tension or compression, exceeding BIA recommendations
• Adjustability: Up to 1/2” inward adjustability for wall thickness variations
• Stainless Steel: Stainless steel barrel with significantly lower thermal conductivity compared to carbon steel and zinc barrels
• Easy Installation: Features a 5/16” hex head for installation with a standard hex socket
• Seismic Adaptability: Easily adaptable for seismic zones by adding 9 gauge or 3/16" continuous wire and a 2X-HOOK Seismic Pintle (SH)
