The APU slide bearing profile PUR-FIX is used in compound heat insulation systems at building joints with different building materials (e.g., where extra floors are added to buildings made of wood or solid structures). Thanks to the non-linked solution, movements (pressure up to 4 mm and shear up to 2 mm) can be absorbed.
The profile is made up of 2 plastic profiles, to each of which a strip of mesh is welded. Each bar has a fabric overhang on one side of 10cm in the lengthways direction. The pro- file comes with pre-compressed PUR sealing strip, which is triggered by removing the red activation tab. It can, as a result, absorb movements and creates a watertight seal. The PUR sealing strip is impacted lengthways in the profile and has an overhang for sealing the joint. The profiles can be connected in flush alignment using the plug connectors (Z14) and brackets (Z58-V) provided. The pre-fabricated corner pieces (Z58-A for outer corners and Z58-I for inner corners) should be used for forming corners. These must be ordered separately. What is created after completion of the plastering work is a clean termination of the plaster.
