Structural Thermal Break Pad / Connection
Fabreeka's structural thermal break pad / connection, or thermal insulation material (TIM), is manufactured from a fiberglass-reinforced laminate composite. The properties of this material provide a thermally efficient, energy-saving product that prevents thermal bridging in structural connections. TIM is a load bearing “thermal break” used between flanged steel connections. The primary benefit is that it maintains structural integrity while reducing heat loss.
Associated Applications:
Building & Construction
Key Features/Benefits:
- Thermally efficient, energy-saving construction
- Eliminates potential condensation and mold
- High load capacity maintains structural integrity
- Low thermal conductivity reduces heat loss
TIM material is supplied in sheets or cut to size per customer drawings/specifications and is available in thicknesses of 1/4”, 1/2” and 1”. It is also supplied as thermal break washers for the bolted connections between external and internal steelwork.
