6 mm Rubber Pads for Paving and Decking

Rubber discs designed for areas with restricted height thresholds to raise paving or decking off the surface but still offer sufficient drainage.

Wallbarn has redesigned the 5 mm thick rubber disc for paving to incorporate integrated spacing lugs and increasing the height to 6 mm. There is now no need to use separate cross spacers – the integrated headpieces offer a more secure fitting and completely straight paving line.

The pad will lift paving off the surface by the 6 mm (the rubber pad is 5 mm thick and the integrated headpiece raises it by a further 1 mm). This pad will be used mainly where installers wish to prevent sharp slabs or timber coming into direct contact with the membrane beneath.

The surface of this circular disc is flat. The solid circular discs are made from PVC with a smooth finish. The plastic positioning lugs are incorporated into the pad as they plug into a small hole in the centre of the pad or disc.

Since the discs are made from rubber, they have a soft, flexible, hard wearing, non-slip profile; which means they protect the membrane beneath from damage. Rubber will also offer acoustic properties and create a separation layer from the deck.

They are extremely tough and durable and will also not become brittle in cold weather.

The 6 mm disc can also be used with timber decking. They have a load bearing capacity of 8,000 kg and an outer diameter of 150 mm.

The TD headpiece has side bars 60 mm apart, meaning a standard 2” / 50 mm wide timber joist can be placed between the bars. The joists will form a framework structure for the decking system and the decking planks are fixed to that framework.

The new TD Plus headpiece can also be used with the 5 mm rubber paving disc.

The timber batten will be fixed onto the side bar of the headpiece via the two small slots, which a woodscrew can be passed through.
