Pre-fix frame cramps with Ancon Gauge Tape

Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Jul 21, 2005

Pre-fix frame cramps to an accurate masonry gauge with the Ancon Gauge Tape

Gauge Tape features the standard 225mm brick/block gauge and clearly illustrates the fixing position of frame cramps.

When applied to a structural frame, the tape provides a visual reference that eliminates inaccurate masonry coursing.

It enables frame cramps to be fixed for the full height of an elevation in advance of masonry.

The pre-fixing of cramps allows bricklayers to concentrate on their trade, accelerating the speed of construction.

It also enables a pre-build check that wall restraints are located correctly and securely fixed.

More than one elevation can be constructed simultaneously, resulting in faster weatherproof structures.

Ancon Gauge Tape is an innovative, patented product.

It is produced on high quality laminated film and supplied in 33 metre rolls.
