ANCON LAUNCHES
IMPROVED IHR
HEAD RESTRAINT TO
ACCOMMODATE 75MM GAPS
ANCON, winner of the
2018 Queen’s Award
for Innovation, has
re-engineered its IHR
internal head restraint
to accommodate gaps
at the wall head of up
to 75mm, extending
the previous maximum
of 50mm.
Head Restraints provide
a simple support at the
top of masonry panels.
They are typically
installed in the inner
leaf of blockwork on a framed
structure, where the masonry is
non-loadbearing.
Ancon IHR’s comprise an
L-shaped channel section,
fitted in the bed joint and
perpendicular joint of the top
masonry course, and a second
sliding component, fixed to
the underside of the structural
frame.
The latter is shaped to prevent
disengagement from the
channel, allowing installation as a
complete assembly, and available
in a variety of designs to suit
different fixing methods.
The sliding top section is
available in two lengths;
one length to suit 25-50mm
gaps and a longer length for
51-75mm gaps, ideal where a
fire or acoustic barrier is being
installed or greater deflections
are expected in the primary
structure.
Ancon, a CRH company, operates
an active product development
programme that invites ideas
from both inside and outside
the business. Recording,
analysing and fulfilling unmet
customer demands, such as
accommodating larger gaps at
wall heads, are a key driver to
Ancon’s on-going success.
