Foilboard Spacer Blocks – 100 Pack

Foilboard Spacer Blocks

Product Overview

Foilboard Spacer Blocks are designed specifically for double brick cavity walls to create an insulating reflective airspace between the Foilboard panel and masonry. By slotting these spacer blocks onto the brick ties, a reflective barrier is established, enhancing both the insulation and thermal performance of the entire system. These spacer blocks simplify installation and offer long-lasting support for energy efficiency in various construction projects.

Why Choose Foilboard Spacer Blocks?

Foilboard Spacer Blocks offer a reliable solution for achieving optimal insulation in double brick cavity walls. By creating an air gap, they help prevent heat transfer, enhancing thermal retention in structures. These spacer blocks are easy to install, durable, and fit securely over brick ties, ensuring stability in various environmental conditions.

Key Features of Foilboard Spacer Blocks

• Reflective Insulation Barrier: Creates an air gap that enhances thermal efficiency.
• Easy Installation: Slots easily over brick ties, making setup simple and efficient.
• Durable Design: Withstands foot traffic, impacts, and the demands of installation.
• Compatibility with Various Foilboard Panels: Suitable for projects requiring precise insulation adjustments.
• Weather Resistance: Protects against thermal bridging and maintains structural integrity.

Method of Calculating Quantities of Foilboard

1. Measure the Floor or Wall Area: Calculate the total area without any deductions.
2. Allow for 5% Waste: Account for cutting, waste, and deductions for window and door openings.
3. Divide by Sheet Size for Quantity: Use the sheet size for calculations.
   • Divide the adjusted area by 2.93 for 2.44m sheets.
   • Divide by 3.24 for 2.7m sheets.
4. Placement and Spacing: Place saddles at approximately 600mm intervals and leave 200mm at sheet ends.
5. Retro-Fit Installation Recommendations: For retro-fit applications, Foilboard should span across joists and between bearers with three fasteners per joist, ensuring all joins are taped.

Applications of Foilboard Spacer Blocks

Foilboard Spacer Blocks have a wide range of applications in construction, supporting various structural and thermal needs:

1. Concrete Formwork: Ensures precise formwork alignment and concrete thickness consistency.
2. Masonry Construction: Provides necessary spacing for support and insulation between walls, columns, or arches.
3. Paving and Flooring: Creates accurate spacing between floor materials like tiles or bricks, giving a professional finish.
4. Reinforced Concrete Structures: Supports alignment and positioning of reinforcing bars, enhancing the stability of structures.
5. Precast Concrete Applications: Helps achieve uniform spacing in precast elements, ensuring visual and structural consistency.
