Wykamol CM Brick Plugs (Without Seals)

Wykamol CM Brick Plugs (Without Seals)

Wykamol CM Brick Plugs are integral for ensuring the effective installation of waterproof membranes in Basement Waterproofing and Damp Proofing projects. Crafted from High Density Polypropylene, these plugs provide robust and corrosion-resistant fixings for securing Wykamol Waterproof Membranes to various base materials, primarily brickwork and concrete.

The application process involves using a 10mm SDS Drill Bit to create a 10mm diameter hole through the membrane and into the solid base material. This ensures a secure and reliable attachment that withstands the challenges of damp and moisture. Additionally, the integrated central hole allows for the accommodation of a 5mm diameter woodscrew, enabling the fixing of timber battens for internal lining systems, further enhancing the structural integrity and functionality of the installation.

With a pull-out performance of 0.7kN in concrete, 0.64kN in solid brick, and 0.38kN in lightweight block, Wykamol CM Brick Plugs deliver exceptional strength and durability. They are engineered to withstand shear loading of up to 0.038kN, making them ideal for demanding applications.

The 60mm length and 25mm head diameter provide a secure and stable connection, while the plugs accommodate insulation thickness ranging from 0 to 20mm, offering versatility in installation requirements. The minimum embed depth of 40mm ensures a robust and reliable connection, providing long-lasting performance and peace of mind.

It is important to note that for areas at high risk of water ingression, we strongly recommend using a sealing product in conjunction with Wykamol CM Brick Plugs. Opting for sealing products such as Wykamol Plug Seals or Wykamol Rope enhances the overall waterproofing capabilities and ensures comprehensive protection against water intrusion, safeguarding the integrity of the installation.
