Eurotec T-Stick

The T-Stick is suitable for fastening side-grooved decking made of low-movement wood types or WPC to substructures made of wood or aluminium. The T-Stick is inserted between two wooden boards and fastened in the board groove with a stainless steel clamping plate. The clamping plate is screwed to the substructure with a stainless steel screw between the joints. The spacer domes ensure an even joint spacing of 5 mm between the boards. The distance of approx. 9 mm between the boards and the substructure allows good ventilation and can significantly increase the service life of the entire decking. Advantages Indirect/ invisible fastening solution Readjustment and replacement of individual boards is possible at any time. Compatible with classic timber substructures as well as our modern aluminium system profile and the HKP decking support system Uniform plank spacing Supports constructive wood protection Weather-resistant Instructions for use The T-Stick may only be used for low-movement decking. 
Low-movement decking includes the following types of wood, treatment methods and composite materials: Larch Douglas fir Wood-polymer composites (WPC) Thermowoods made from softwoods & hardwoods Acetylated wood

The use of the T-Stick is not recommended for woods with high bulk density and/or high swelling and shrinkage and only moderate stability (dimensional stability). This applies in particular to the wood species cumarú, ipé, massaranduba and robinia (false acacia).
When selecting wood, particular emphasis should also be placed on good cut sorting (e.g. sorting out boards with interlocking growth and so-called "flader boards") as well as good conditioning (setting the equalising moisture content) of the decking boards.
The suitability of the type of wood must be determined by the manufacturer/wood supplier if necessary.

The T-Stick is suitable for boards with the following groove geometry:

→ Groove depth: ≥9.0mm
→ Groove width: ≥3.0mm
→ Groove cheek thickness: for timber or WCP substructures: ≥6.0 mm
for aluminium system profile and HKP decking support system: ≥10.0 mm
