Dave Jones Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Anyone found a cheap source for these ? Really want to use them on the build but £2.50 for a wall tie is a very hard pill to swallow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nod Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 At 2.50 each it will be a full time job collecting the ones that the Brickies have wasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceverge Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Have you done the calculations on stainless steels ties? Over a wide cavity, the difference is tiny in heat loss but dramatic in money saved. We used these guys ship but I don't know if they ship to the UK. http://www.vartryengineering.com/products/extra-long-wall-tie-large-cavities.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canski Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Not sure what you are looking for but fastbuild supplies are good for normal cavity ties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minimal handling, no stocking, no losses, one transaction. As above £2 becomes 50p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
