Cladding & Roofing Fasteners

Quality steel fixings

Sustainability, legislation and directives are not automatically connected with fasteners, yet these issues drive the work of EJOT® UK and our Applitec Centre. It’s at the company’s testing laboratory that around 25% of EJOT’s products are developed for the industry’s major system manufacturers. More obvious products like corrugated fasteners and fasteners for rooflight installation are all subject to the same procedures. In a similar our fasteners suit all substrates; from fixing timber to steel.

It is a part of the Group’s ethos to explore niche areas within the sector and develop products that present real benefits both in terms of simplified installation and long term performance.

A typical example is our specially developed coated fasteners. Local authorities can face a ‘refurb or rebuild’ dilemma over local swimming pool facilities. Buildings that have seen better days present special concerns, not least the effect that a corrosive atmosphere can have on metal fixings, long term.

EJOT has developed a range self-tapping coated fasteners specifically for use in atmospheres with a known risk of high stress corrosion. Typical areas include leisure centres, tunnels, and environments that combine high humidity and high chloride concentrations.

The EJOT® fastener uses modified stainless steel 1.4529 to provide a significantly higher resistance to corrosion from chlorine, chloride & sulphur dioxide, and is endorsed by a 25 year warranty.
