RAWLPLUG facade anchor R-TFIX-8M 8×175 mm with metal driven pin, pack of 200

RAWLPLUG R-TFIX-8M 8×175 mm is a mechanical facade anchor with a metal driven pin, supplied in a pack of 200. It is intended for fixing insulation boards, ventilated cladding and other facade elements to masonry and concrete substrates. The design delivers a secure load-bearing connection for external wall insulation systems and general facade fastening applications where a reliable mechanical anchor is required.

Advantages

The anchor combines a corrosion-resistant plastic sleeve with a metal driven pin to ensure firm engagement in base materials and consistent expansion action. Its length and diameter are selected for common insulation and cladding thicknesses, enabling dependable fixing without the need for additional adhesives. Supplied in bulk packs of 200, the product supports efficient installation workflows and reduces handling time on site.

Suitable for

• Fixing insulation boards in external wall insulation systems
• Attaching ventilated cladding and facade panels to concrete and masonry
• Mechanical anchoring of facade profiles and substructures
• General facade repairs and retrofit work

Key specifications

• Anchor diameter: 8 mm
• Anchor length: 175 mm
• Material: plastic sleeve with metal driven pin
• Application substrate: masonry and concrete
• Pack quantity: 200 pieces

How to use

Drill a hole in the substrate to the specified diameter and depth appropriate for an 8×175 mm anchor. Clean the hole of dust and debris before inserting the plastic sleeve so it sits flush with the insulation or facade element. Position the component and drive the metal pin through the sleeve until the pin head is fully set and the sleeve has expanded to form a secure mechanical connection. Observe recommended embedment depths and torque values provided by the manufacturer for consistent performance.

Usage recommendations

Verify substrate condition before installation and use anchors at spacing and pattern consistent with design requirements for wind loads and mechanical stresses. Avoid use in heavily cracked or loose masonry without prior consolidation; in such cases select appropriate remedial measures or alternative fixing types. Store the anchors in a dry place and handle packs to prevent deformation before use.
