KEVLAR NECKTIE
Top Wall Anchoring System
Kevlar Necktie

DESCRIPTION:

Fortress Kevlar Necktie is an Aramid Composite webbing combined with an aluminum bracket and zinc coated lags that laminates into 4020 epoxy resin system. Half of the Aramid webbing is traditional fabric,the other half is pre-prag pre-cured with peel-ply which laminates to the foundation assuring entire strap will load in conjunction. It is designed to attach to the bond or ridge plate of structure which remains constant whether there is a seal plate or no seal plate present.

ADVANTAGES:
  • Low Profile
  • Flame Retardant
  • Non-Corrosive
  • Installs in 5 minutes
  • Able to conform to all building types
  • Does not affect ceiling height
  • Able to be installed where ductwork and plumbing would traditionally need to be remove

HOW IT WORKS:

Load at top of wall is tensile and then becomes shear. Bracket is held by 4 lags that have pull out tensile in wood 9 times standard penny nails,lamination technique with vacuum clamping pulls Kevlar tight and reduces elongation. Load is then transferred to epoxy resin to non-laitance bearing surface. Kevlar in epoxy matrix produces a lap shear of 750 psi.Necktie can be laminated over Fortress straps or independent of strapping.
