a stylish solution for anchoring structures on flat roofs
simple and versatile structural element designed for creating universal line anchor points on flat roofs with PVC-P or TPO membranes
allows direct anchoring of cable-ways, piping systems, etc. or distribution grids for heavier constructions, e.g. for photo-voltaic panels
consists of three closed plastic omega profiles 150 mm long and 31 mm high, made of UV stabilized polymer, joined by a thick-walled open aluminum U-profile reinforcement of 1.5 m or 2.0 m length; omega profiles can be moved along
the aluminum reinforcement as needed
FIXPROFIL/PVC, FIXPROFIL/TPO-PP, FIXPROFIL/TPO-PE versions are compatible with most PVC-P and TPO membranes, to which they are simply hot-air welded by hand welding machine
cheap, efficient, quick and easy to install
has the same durability as the polymer waterproofing covering itself
their design does not prevent water outflow

Application
Select FIXPROFIL/PVC, FIXPROFIL/TPO-PP or FIXPROFIL/TPO-PE depending on the type of polymer waterproofing layer (PVC, TPO-PP, TPO-PE).
In case of doubt about the type of roofing membrane, or in case of older membrane, check the compatibility of the selected FIXPROFIL version by welding on the roofing membrane.
FIXPROFIL is preferably oriented along the slope and parallel to the longitudinal overlaps of the foil. Due to the design of the profile, however, it is also possible to orient perpendicularly to the slope or perpendicularly to
the longitudinal overlaps without the FIXPROFIL interfering with the water run-off.
If photovoltaic panels are installed, there must be at least one anchoring element in the vicinity of the FIXPROFIL used for anchoring the membrane overlap. Or an additional anchoring element waterproofed with a circular patch
is required. When only low and light type elements are attached to FIXPROFIL like cable-way, etc., is not anchoring element below the omega profile required. If FIXPROFIL is applied to the bonded membrane (adhered systems),
the anchors must be added under each omega profile.
FIXPROFIL can be mounted side by side or joined by inserting a pair of aluminium reinforcements into the outer omega profiles to which they are screwed. The gap between the aluminium profiles must be minimally 10 mm for length
expansion.
Anchoring to the aluminium profile is made by self-drilling stainless steel screws of max. 25 mm length with a seal under the screw head.
