Steelwork connection easy with new Boxsok
Access Technologies has introduced its purpose-designed BoxSok tool for the quick and easy installation of BoxBolt cavity fixings.
"The result is the Floorfix HT which we're sure will prove at hit with our customers".
The new Floorfix HT is quick and easy for contractors to use and more able to cope with greater construction site tolerances than previous fixings.
It allows for steelwork erection tolerances of +/- 6mm, allowing positional adjustments to be made when fixing is required.
In addition, the BeamClamp Floorfix HT can connect onto steel flanges from 3mm to 25mm as standard, without the need for additional packing pieces.
BeamClamp fixings are specifically developed for the requirements of the modern construction industry, bringing unique benefits of easy specification and use, high safety performance and long-lasting reliability to all applications today.
As the only range of fixings on the market which are both DIBt approved and hot dip galvanised as standard, specifying BeamClamp could not be easier, whatever the project.
Unlike with traditional drilled or welded joints, they allow easy adjustment and re-alignment to cope with site tolerances, reducing installation difficulty and time.
The range also features BoxBolt cavity fixings designed to connect steelwork into hollow section or for use where access is only available from one side.
All sizes of BoxBolt contain an overlap feature to allow for unforeseen variations in steel thicknesses, making them especially easy to work with in contrast to other steel fixings on the market.
BeamClamp fixings are also manufactured from ductile iron, typically giving a 25% improvement in tensile strength over the ordinary malleable iron used in alternative products.
