To Install Clever Shield Remedial Wall Ties, You Will Need:
-
A Remedial Wall Tie Setting Tool
-
SDS Drill Bits
-
Use a 6 mm x 360 mm SDS drill bit for 195–255 mm ties.
-
Use a 6 mm x 450 mm SDS drill bit for 270–295 mm ties.
-
For engineering bricks or structural-grade concrete, a 7 mm drill bit is required.
-
For perforated bricks, use a 5 mm pilot hole.
Be sure the pilot hole is 10 mm deeper than the tie length to allow proper recessing for secure anchoring.
