GypTec Polymer Fastener
The OMG Polymer GypTec™ is a high-strength, glass-filled nylon auger fastener with a 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 is used with 75 mm GypTec plates for insulation attachment and 50 mm GypTec plates for membrane attachment. Available in lengths from 60 mm to 305 mm.
Features & Benefits
- Designed for increased pullout resistance and shear strength.
- Made from glass-filled nylon, which eliminates corrosion and thermal bridging
- Non-penetrating design. Fastener threads into the deck but not through.
- Plate design locks onto the head of the GypTec fastener
Product Use
OMG GypTec Polymer fasteners can be installed into some cementitious wood fiber decks without predrilling. A pilot hole is required for gypsum. Use a 11 mm, 13 mm or 14 mm drill bit as determined by pullout test results. Pilot holes must be a minimum of 13 mm deeper than embedment. GypTec Polymer fasteners should be installed using a heavy duty variable speed screw gun.
Installation at a low rpm is recommended. Minimum fastener embedment into the deck is 13 mm. The GypTec Polymer fastener should never penetrate the underside of the deck.
