Damex FR Stainless Steel Fixing Strip is best suited for securely installing Damex FR Non-Combustible DPC & Cavity Tray within masonry cavity wall applications. Manufactured from durable stainless steel, it provides a robust and corrosion-resistant fixing solution that ensures long-term stability of the DPC or cavity tray. Its design allows for straightforward installation while maintaining the non-combustible performance of the overall system. The fixing strip is particularly effective in high-rise or fire-sensitive projects where both moisture protection and fire safety compliance are critical.

What is the Damex FR Stainless Steel Fixing Strip?

The Damex FR Stainless Steel Fixing Strip is an accessory component designed to securely fix the Damex FR Non-Combustible DPC & Cavity Tray in masonry and cavity wall applications. The strip is made from stainless steel, with durability and corrosion resistance, and is a non-combustible (A1 rated) fixing solution.

Why is the fixing strip used?

• It helps anchor the non-combustible DPC or cavity tray securely in place, maintaining position and continuity.
• Ensures that the system remains fire-compliant by using materials and fixings that do not degrade in fire.
• Provides mechanical support especially at overlaps, edges, or changes in direction.

In what applications is this fixing strip particularly important?

• High-rise, multi-unit, or fire-sensitive buildings where strict fire safety standards apply.
• Anywhere the Damex FR DPC / cavity tray overlaps — such as where trays run above openings (doors/windows), at wall heads, or in perimeter DPC locations.
• Situations where adhesive alone might not provide sufficient mechanical retention, especially under load or with weathering.
