The Sure Tie anchor system is a professional-grade anchoring solution specifically engineered for brick veneer applications. It establishes a high-stability connection between the masonry veneer and the steel stud backup, utilizing a precision-engineered triangle-shaped steel anchor. Its pointed design allows for rapid and accurate penetration through insulation and wallboard, ensuring positive contact with the underlying steel structure to effectively transfer both compression and tension loads.
Designed for versatility and efficiency, the Sure Tie anchor features an adjustable triangle that allows for up to 1-1/4" of vertical movement, easily accommodating structural unevenness in the studs. This innovative system not only enhances structural integrity but also streamlines the installation process by securing insulation sheets (up to 4'x 8') in place, significantly reducing labor time and overall construction costs for contractors.
