Bespoke moulded step (MWST)
The liner of the step should be pinned and fixed before hot air welding.

Fixings specification engineered for gutter substrate type

Substrate Product Code Pilot hole (if required) Drill speed
STEEL < 3mm HDS-LS-30 N/A 0-2000rpm – Can be full speed
STEEL > 3mm HDS-HS-40 N/A 0-2000rpm – Can be full speed
CONCRETE HDS-CON-45 5mm Diameter 0-950rpm – Typically 750Watt
ASBESTOS HDS-ASB-38 9.5mm Diameter Set to lowest speed

 

Remember to refer to the current health & safety guide when drilling holes into highly bonded materials such as asbestos cement.
The illustration above shows a typical installation including eight fasteners but in order to determine exactly how many are required, refer to the ‘200 rule’.

The 200 rule
The maximum permitted gap between fixings in the pinning region is 200mm.
So, a 600mm gap must be bridged with two further fixings (at 200mm and 400mm) and a 300mm gap between fixings requires an additional one to bisect at 150mm.
