Conrad Business Supplies has added fischer’s DUO-Line fasteners to its comprehensive range of mounting and assembly solutions. The fasteners consist of the two members, DUOTEC and DUOPOWER, which are available in various sizes.
The DUOTEC intelligent two-component fastener can be used as a cavity fastener, ie for slab building material with a thickness above 9.5mm, or as an expansion fastener in solid materials.
Compared with conventional plastic fasteners, DUOTEC offers a significantly higher load capacity and load distribution, which reduces the number of fasteners required and significantly increases safety in the case of multiple fastenings.
DUOPOWER fasteners are also made of two components and are versatile plastic fasteners for use in all building materials.
They offer the two functional principles spreading and folding and differentiate depending on the substrate or material itself whether they spread or fold. This allows versatile applications with just one type of fastener.
The feel of the fasteners when tightening the screw provides additional safety.
“Users choosing the DUO-Line range benefit from a higher holding force and improved safety,” says Christian Heldmann, Head of Product Group, Strategic Brands (Industrial Safety, Factory Equipment, Chemicals, Fastening, Microscopes, Welding Engineering, Storage Tools, Compressed Air Technology, Clamping Tools) at Conrad Business Supplies.
“All parts of our DUO-Line series offer several functions and are highly versatile,” adds Arne van de Poll, Product Manager at fischer Germany.
