Description
Button Fix Type 2 - Fix & Button for Countersunk Wood Screws
New push-on/pull-off mount for wall and ceiling panels
Simply connects parallel panels, including panels with no clearance at the side. It can be surface-mounted or semi-recessed into the panel and its installation depth matches the Type 1 Button-fix, allowing the two fasteners to be used to hang adjacent panels.
The Fix housing is moulded from PBT and the Button is acetal - both strong and durable engineering polymers. As a general guide, four Button-fix Type 3 fasteners on a vertical panel will support loads weighing up to a maximum of 60kg (132 lbs), provided that the screws and substrate are properly matched and all other installation instructions are complied with. Four Type 3 Button-fixes can also support a ceiling panel of up to 10kg (22 lbs). Manufactured in the UK.
Many applications of Type 3 are the same as the versatile Type 1 Button-fix, but where a push-on/pull-off engagement is required. Type 3 Button-fix is ideal for:
- Wall and lightweight ceiling panels
- Boat interiors with irregular-shaped panels
- Acoustic panels including acoustic felt panels
- Upholstered panels, bed headboards and banquette seating
- Panels at the end-of-run or in tight corners on a Button-fix Type 1 installation, where sliding engagement is not possible
