- Concealed from the first board to the last
- Constructive wood protection against moisture
- Allows expansion and contraction of wood boards
- Optimal rear ventilation through spacing
- Can be used for timber facades and formwork, for which rear ventilation has been implemented
- Easy installation with mounting templates
- UV and weather-resistant fiberglass reinforced plastic.
Tips:
- Even the best connecting system cannot offset poor quality of some timber. Please ensure that the timber is dry; particularly, avoid timber from the core and spiral-grained boards.
- Recommended length of the boards: maximum 3 m (9.8 ft.).
- Recommended for spacing no smaller than 7 mm between the boards and the joists
- You may pre-drill, particularly with hardwoods, such as oak.
- Follow the installation instructions of your timber supplier.
Material
Plastic – PA6, glass fiber reinforced, black
Coating
none
Connector type
Decking and panel connectors
Assembly
stainless steel CS screw A2 5×25 mm self-tapping for board thicknesses 24-26 mm
stainless steel CS screw A2 5×30 mm self-tapping for board thickness from 27 mm
Advantages
Allows swelling and shrinkage, no visible screws from the first to the last board, and protects the joist from moisture.
Processing
Pre-drill with a template (recommended for hardwoods), screw and plug together, and adapt screw length to the material thickness.
Choice of material
Follow the installation recommendations of the timber supplier.

QUATRO 65 is installed easily and concealed from the first to the last board.
Note: If the joint width is more than 7 mm, keep the spacing of 31.5 mm smaller, for example, joint width 12 mm => spacing 27 mm.
Hint: QUATRO 65 can also be used as a spacer to maintain joint widths (4.5 or 9 mm).
Installing instructions: A minimum of 7 mm joint spacing from 24 mm plank thickness on European and Siberian larch for 90-120 mm recommended board widths.* Follow the installation instructions of the timber supplier.
*Installation recommendation for decking by VEH (Association of the European Planning Industry).
