Fasteners to attach DuPont™ Thermax™ Sheathing from Rodenhouse Inc.

If you plan to use DuPont™ Thermax™ Sheathing insulation to create a layer of continuous insulation you need to consider your options for permanent and energy efficient attachment… Rodenhouse Fastening Systems is here to support you! To attach rigid DuPont™ Thermax™ Sheathing insulation to steel studs, wood studs, or masonry substrates we have various fastening options to consider. Our 2 inch diameter Thermal-Grip® ci prong washer can be used with Grip-Deck® ceramic coated self-drilling screws to easily attach into all gauges of steel. The dual prong feature on the bottom of the washer enables pre-spotting on the surface of the insulation for easy "on-the-wall" screw assembly. For major labor-savings, use our Grip-Lok® Autofeed Fastening System which is specifically designed to rapidly attach our screws and washers into steel studs. This system is up to 4 times faster than using traditional bulk screws and washers! To attach continuous insulation to wood studs the 1 ¾’ dia. Plasti-Grip® ci prong washer is a great option that can either be used with Grip-Deck® screws, or it can be shot-in with ordinary pneumatic nail guns. The flexible design compresses on the surface of the insulation for a flush finish. For masonry cavity wall applications, you can utilize the Pos-i-Tie® veneer anchoring system with our 2" diameter Thermal-Grip® brick tie washer to prevent insulation blow-off and also to prevent air and moisture penetration at the anchor points. For adhered masonry such as stucco or stone veneer, use our Grip-Plate® lath and plaster washers with Grip-Deck® screws to attach lath outboard of the insulation. The Grip-Plate® lath and plaster washers are 1 ¼ inch in diameter and help spread the load to be able to support heavier cladding outboard of the insulation. For attaching rigid Insulation to a concrete block or masonry substrate, utilize our Plasti-Grip® PMF Anchor. PMF stands for Plastic Masonry Fastener. These are easy to use by pre-drilling through the insulation and into the block or concrete substrate, placing the concrete anchor into the hole, and tapping it flush with a hammer. No adhesives, pins, or screws required. Rodenhouse Fastening Systems. Global Strength. Personal Service.

Dow THERMAX™ (ci) Wall System Attachment Solutions from Rodenhouse Inc.

"My name is Steve Dawson. I’m a Building Envelope Specialist with Dow Building Solutions. Today we’re here in Broomfield, Colorado installing our THERMAX™ (ci) Exterior Insulation Wall System on a school project. We’re using our THERMAX™ (ci) Exterior Polyiso Insulation with our LIQUIDARMOR™ Flashing & Sealant to provide the air and water barrier for this system. In addition were using a two pound closed cell polyurethane foam on the back side to provide redundancy and additional air control. We’re putting the THERMAX™ (ci) Exterior Insulation up today with the Rodenhouse Thermal-Grip® washer. We chose the Rodenhouse washer system for this project because we can pre-spot these washers and then come back and install the fasteners separately. It speeds up the installation. In addition, these washers do not need any additional flashing to insure that they are water and air tight. Dow has tested this system, and the contractor really loves that benefit because it saves them time and money on the installation. This project is being dried in well ahead of schedule due to the benefits of the THERMAX™ (ci) Exterior Insulation Wall System going directly against the steel studs and the combination of the Rodenhouse Thermal-Grip® washer."
