Description
ROOFTRAK® IFP-BC integrated fixing point system for handrail and balustrade applications on cold roof constructions. The IFP-BC can be used in both horizontal (flat roof) and vertical (parapet wall) constructions.
Features and benefits:
- Bolted direct to the substrate.
- Provides a connection point for balustrade supports.
- Comprised of a 225 x 375 mm fixing plate with two anchor points each with 2 no. M10 x 20 blind threaded connection points. The fixing plate has 8 no. holes through which the plate is bolted to the structure.
- To weather the fixing plate the IFP-BC is factory fitted with an appropriate flange material to enable it to be weathered or sealed to the main roof area.
- A mounting or weld plate can be supplied in 10 mm-thick mild steel or stainless steel for connecting the balustrade to the IFP-BC.
