The Fischer distance mounting system TherMax 8 is a solution for fastening to exterior walls without thermal bridges in external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS). The stud screw with the fiberglass-reinforced cone self-drills through the plaster into the insulation material. During installation, the stud screw is screwed into the universal plug UX, securely anchoring it in the building material. The anti-cold cone at the head of the stud screw interrupts the thermal bridge and accommodates the external fastening. The TherMax is designed to attach light loads such as lights, mailboxes, or lightning rods to concrete, aerated concrete, and masonry made of hollow and solid bricks.
