Description
The ACS Apollo Masonry Reinforcement, also known as Ladder Reinforcement or Bed-Joint Reinforcement, is manufactured from stainless steel and is used to strengthen masonry walls and partitions, helping to reduce cracking and provide general structural support.
The product is a standard-shaped wire suitable for various combinations of brick or block widths by utilising differing widths of ladder
Features and benefits:
- Effectively reinforces masonry walls, providing robust structural support.
- Minimizes the risk of cracks within walls and structures.
- Available in a standard length of 2.7 metres and a range of wire diameters to accommodate various brick and block widths.
- Made from stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance.
- Offered in four wire diameters: 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm, 4.0 mm and 5.0 mm.
- The 4.0 mm and 5.0 mm variants are manufactured with a flattened wire profile for ease of integration into mortar joints.
