Product Overview
70mm Flat Fixing Strap used in drylining systems to provide reinforcement and stability at critical junctions.
Within partition construction, it is primarily employed to support horizontal plasterboard joints where walls extend beyond a single board height, preventing board edges from deflecting or separating.
It is also used within deflection head details, where partitions meet soffits or ceiling structures that are designed to allow movement, ensuring plasterboard edges remain securely supported while accommodating building tolerances.
Its flat profile allows the strap to sit flush within the partition framework without obstructing subsequent board fixing or finishing.
At standard 2400mm length, the strap provides continuous coverage across board joints, improving the rigidity and integrity of plasterboard installations in both commercial and residential applications.
Features & Benefits
- Durable galvanised steel: Manufactured from galvanised steel to ensure strength and resistance to corrosion in dry internal environments.
- Horizontal joint reinforcement: Provides reliable support for plasterboard joints where partitions are taller than a single board height.
- Deflection head stability: Ensures secure support of plasterboard edges within deflection head details while accommodating structural movement.
- Flat profile design: Sits flush within partition systems, allowing easy board fixing without obstruction.
Applications
- Plasterboard partitions: Provides reinforcement at horizontal joints where walls exceed one board height.
- Deflection head details: Supports plasterboard edges in partitions meeting soffits or ceilings designed to allow movement.
- Drywall lining systems: Adds rigidity and stability within framed drylining installations.
- Commercial and residential interiors: Suitable for partitioning in offices, schools, healthcare, and housing projects.
Installation Guidance
- Preparation: Confirm framework is aligned and secured before strap installation, ensuring correct positioning at horizontal joints or deflection head details.
- Flush positioning: Fit the strap flat against the partition framework to provide reinforcement without obstructing subsequent board fixing.
- Secure fixing: Attach the strap using suitable screws at regular centres (typically 300-400mm), maintaining continuous support along the joint line.
- Board support: Install plasterboard sheets so horizontal edges are fully supported by the strap, ensuring screws are correctly driven without over-tightening.
- Seamless finishing: Proceed with standard taping, jointing, or skimming - the flat strap profile allows for smooth finishing with no protrusion.
Compliance & Performance
- Material specification: Manufactured from galvanised steel to industry-recognised standards for dry internal applications.
- Partition performance: Provides board edge reinforcement in line with standard drylining and partition system requirements.
- Deflection head suitability: Designed for use within deflection head details, maintaining stability while allowing structural movement.
- System compatibility: Suitable for use with commonly specified plasterboard partition and lining systems in commercial and residential projects.
