Unifix Universal Stainless Steel Wall Starter Kit

The Universal Stainless Steel Wall Starter is a fully adjustable sliding tie system engineered to join new masonry walls to existing structures safely and effectively. This kit provides a robust mechanical connection for extensions, conservatories, and garden walls, eliminating the need for traditional tooth-and-bond brickwork. Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, the system features interlocking channels and a "twist and slide" tie design that allows for total flexibility in positioning. This ensures that the ties can be perfectly aligned with the bed joints of any masonry type, including brick, block, and random stone. Suitable for both internal and external applications, the system provides reliable lateral restraint for single-skin or cavity walls up to 8 metres in height.
