3000 - Universal Frame Cramp
(Masonry/Steel or Concrete)

ImagePart E Approved (Type B)A multi purpose conventional fixing cramp that incorporates a number of unique design features. This frame cramp has a slotted upstand that provides the user with a vertical tolerance when fixing the product to a structure. This reduces the likelihood of the cramp being bent on site to suit brickwork coursing.

The cramp has a multi drip feature that ensures a drip is positioned within the open cavity. The shape of the product and the multi drip features prevent moisture from crossing the cavity. It is not necessary to stock or purchase different style frame cramps of the same length.

ImageThis tie has been independently tested at Sheffield University Civil and Structural Engineering Department and results have shown that this product is inherently stronger than the traditional style cramp that is widely available in the market place at present.

The performance of frame cramps is determined by the position of the fixing. At the lowest point of the slot the frame cramp will have a safe working load of approximately 1.0kN. As the fixing position alters the capacity of the tie will reduce. ACS recommend using oversize washers with the fixing when installing cramps with a vertical slot.

Patent No. GB2376029
