Meanwhile, the precision engineered thread has been designed to ensure neither vibration nor thermal movement will unwind its grip.<\/p>\n<p>As an advancement on conventional clamping fasteners,<a href=\"https:\/\/uk.sfs.com\/cxlw-4-8-a2-3-a4-166993\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Tightlapper\u00ae CXLW-4.8<\/a> incorporates the FastTip\u00ae pierce-point to avoid chipping powder coat surface finishes or generating swarf. The fastener further features a \u201cspin-free\u201d zone and cut-off thread, which means no torque control is required while also securing against unwinding.<\/p>\n<h3>Easy to install and built to last<\/h3>\n<p>Assistant product manager for SFS, Francesca McGibbon, comments: \u201cOur new Tightlapper\u00ae range is going to provide a more efficient and easier means of securing any panel across the entire envelope, on to steel or timber members, delivering considerable time savings, as well as other technical benefits. Our revolutionary AV-Shaped washers will ensure installation is simple and totally watertight. In fact, the versatility and drilling capabilities of our SXL2-6.3, along with the rapid installation characteristics of our FastTip\u00ae CXLW-4.8 will vastly improve the installer\u2019s experience.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cTightlapper\u00ae, the latest example of SFS\u2019s innovation, set to simplify the installation of cladding panels and flashings across the entire building envelope.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cSignificantly, the FastTip\u00ae CXLW-4.8 has already been trialled by many of the major profile manufacturers (OEMs), who can recognise the technical advantages, while we\u2019re also targeting installers to show them the practical advantages, such as how the fixing is so rapid and easy to install.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Enhanced drilling capabilities offer fixing solutions across the entire building envelope<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/uk.sfs.com\/sxl2-6-3-166200\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SXL2-6.3<\/a> additionally offers enhanced drilling capabilities to facilitate the installation of multiple overlapping profiles. Across the variants, it covers a clamping range from 0.88mm-6.5mm, offering great versatility.<\/p>\n<p>As a consequence of its innovative design, the Tightlapper\u00ae range delivers a solution to meet every requirement on site, effectively offering a universal solution across the entire envelope. This adaptability includes the CXLW-4.8, being available with a D10 head and A11 washer, instead of a hex head, for fixing flashings.<\/p>\n<p>Both the Tightlapper\u00ae CXLW-4.8 and SXL2-6.3 carry ETA-10\/0198 approval and are available in a wide selection of RAL colours on standard lead times through the SFS supply chain.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vincent Matthews <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Head of UK Marketing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SFS<\/p>\n<p>Tel: +44 (0)330 0555 88<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.uk.sfs.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.uk.sfs.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/sfs-group\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/SFSintecVideo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Youtube<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sfsgroupculture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>*Please note that this is a commercial profile.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following extensive consultation with industry stakeholders, SFS has responded to the market by introducing its new Tightlapper\u00ae fastener range, which offers specifiers and cladding specialists radically improved performance plus simplicity, in place of what can be confusing choices. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":136654,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[172826,464,172727,431],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172519],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-136653","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-planning-construction-news","8":"tag-bim-today-march-2024","9":"tag-contributor-profile","10":"tag-featured","11":"tag-plant-equipment-supplies","12":"stakeholder_rel_tag-sfs-group-fastening-technology"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>New SFS Tightlapper\u00ae range simplifies cladding installation | Planning, Building &amp;
