Track system | Manufacturer guidanceMounting track is available in four different options, each suiting a particular application. Typically 25mmx25mm Slim Line track used. |
Direct fix frame | Direct fix clip. Manufacturer guidanceWhen battens are required to be fixed individually without a mounting track, for in-fills, an end detail, when no backing is used, and also when trying to avoid track being visible, this direct fix clip allows versatility by directly screwing to the substrate. Typically fixed to wall substrate which is commonly brick work. |
Fire performance | Manufacturer guidanceAll untreated timber achieves a Group 3 rating according to the requirements of AS/NZS 3837-1998 and AS 5637.1-2015 for use as wall and ceiling linings, as per NCC 2019 (Volume 1). Timber is flammable, so application is limited to building class and fire resistant construction type as prescribed within the NCC, where low fire resistance levels are allowed. |
FireRating | Manufacturer guidanceEach timber species achieves different BAL ratings according to AS 3959-2009. See technical data sheet for BAL ratings of the various timber species. |
Corners | Specifically designed corner clip. |
Length | Manufacturer guidanceTimber battens are available in a range of length options to suit on-site needs. Timber is a natural product, and lengths range from 600mm to 5.2 meters depending on timber species. Cut to increment and set lengths available on request, however at an increased cost. |
End treatment | Small tongue and groove profile on the ends of the battens. Manufacturer guidanceEnd matching is a small tongue and groove profile on the ends of the battens. When engaged, these profiles help to maintain batten alignment at the butt joins. If your battens are cut to increment, cut the tongue off the first batten where butting to a wall, or the ends will be visible. |
