"The OMG Polymer GypTec® Fastener is a glass-filled nylon auger fastener with a 1-in. (25 mm) head designed to secure insulation and single-ply membrane to gypsum and cementitious wood fiber (i.e., Insulrock®, Permadeck, Tectum®, etc.).
The fastener features a wide buttress thread design for excellent pull-out resistance, and tabs that lock the plate to the head of the fastener. The Polymer GypTec Fastener is designed to thread into the substrate
but should not penetrate the deck. An internal 1⁄4-in. (6 mm) square drive (driver bit included) assures fast and easy installation.
The Polymer GypTec is used with 3-in. (75 mm) steel plates for insulation and 2-in. (50 mm) steel plates for membrane attachment. The Polymer GypTec fastener is Factory Mutual approved and available in lengths from 2.5-in. to 12-in. (60 to 305 mm).
*Special Order for all sizes
* Gyptec Plates available in 2” and 3” 6-2GYPTEC and 6-3GYPTEC"
- Thread design and large root diameter:
- – Increase pullout resistance
- – Increase side shear strength
- Made from glass-filled nylon, which:
- – Eliminates corrosion
- – Eliminates thermal bridging and condensation
- – Yields high tensile strength
- Non-penetrating design. Fastener threads into the deck but not through.
- The OMG Polymer GypTec Fastener is FM approved for insulation attachment only. See system manufacturer for membrane attachment requirements.
- 1⁄4-in. (6 mm) driver bit included in every box.
