Uponor Self Attaching Designed for a fast installation
Uponor’s innovative Self Attaching can cut the time to install underfloor heating by 50 per cent and thus provide significant cost savings.
Using its ’hook and loop` technology Uponor Self Attaching offers a tool-free and hassle-free fixing method that will allow one individual to lay a complete underfloor installation in half the time of traditional installation methods.
A hook fastening tape is wound around the MLC or PE-Xa pipes for the use as Uponor Self Attaching. Parallel the insulating panels are completely covered with a matching laminated loop foil.
That ensures a fast and easy pipe laying. The pipes will be reeled off and pushed onto the foil. The fastening tape on the pipes will be interlocked with the foil of the panels and fastens the pipes.
The self attaching tape and self attaching panels are ideally adjusted for optimized and highest retention force. However the installed pipes can be repositio-ned in case of changes of the distances when laying the pipes. Just disconnect the pipe and fix it again on the panel. To ease the pipe laying patterns have been printed on the foils which ensure exact pipe distances.
Only two components
No special fixing tools are required, insulation membrane integrity is maintained, simple and quick pipe layout adjustments, no fixing restrictions found with pre-formed insulation panels, minimi-sed insulation panel wastage and reduced building programs.
Three different pipes available
Tight bend radii possible without fiddling around
Your advantages
Unique installation technique designed for fast mounting Easy pipe laying without any
special tools Cost-efficient one man
installation Installed pipes can be
repositioned at any time Technical features
Panels available in five thicknesses to suit individual insulation needs: 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm and 35 mm Rollout insulation and fold panels available Suitable for both Uponor PE-Xa and MLC pipes Three pipe sizes: PE-Xa 14x2 and 16x1.8 mm / MLCP 16x2 mm
That is how underfloor heating can easily be laid – the factory wrapped Uponor Self Attaching pipes made can be fixed on the foil by easily pushing the pipe onto the foil. The installation technique ensures highest retention force.
The key element of the Uponor Self Attaching is a unique band which is wound in a spiral around the pipe. This band contains thousands of micro teeth which ensure high retention force when pressed on the matching laminated loop foil.
