Moonshine Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) The waterproofers have been today and left a load of plugs for the brickies (when they know the block levels) to drill through the waterproof layer and fit a plug, as below. However they haven't left the screw ties that go into them (which i thought that they would do) Where the heck can i get a suitable wall screw tie for a 120mm cavity at short notice, anyone help? this seems like a suitable product (though expensive) but i doubt that they are stocked at a LBM https://bsfixings.uk/bluebird-cavity-ties/ Edited July 20, 2021 by Moonshine
PeterW Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 These may work but bluebirds are the best. They are in boxes in my local MKM to buy individually but make sure they price them for you as trade https://www.screwfix.com/p/sabrefix-frame-ties-25-pack/31633?_requestid=456467

I have just looked on line at my local MKM and it doesn't look like they stock them. Worth a call in the morning though.
Moonshine Posted July 20, 2021 Author Posted July 20, 2021 I wonder if these would work, with the hole for the.plug slightly above the mortar line, ummm. https://www.screwfix.com/p/sabrefix-frame-ties-10-pack/24936 Not the intended use, and not sure about galvanised steel rather than stainless, though it's not on a external wall and should not be getting wet.
joe90 Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 I have used the Screwfix ones and these In the past….. https://bsfixings.uk/bluebird-screw-ties-galvanised-stainless-steel/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw6NmHBhD2ARIsAI3hrM2eMmEy96PgtEkUVvQCwRTYSQ0D466QmNf9xBWLoYZKMUWbKReL7PAaAibNEALw_wcB
