Struggling to find which wall ties to use? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered, with our handy “Which Wall Tie?” guide.
Masonry to Timber
This type of wall tie is designed to secure an inner timber frame to an external brick wall. These ties can absorb substantial vertical movement between the brick and timber.
Masonry to Masonry
These ties secure two leaves of a cavity wall together, allowing them to act as one wall structurally. These ties usually incorporate a change of shape or drip to discourage moisture travelling along the tie itself.
