What's in the Tile Backer Board Stud Wall Fixing Installation Bundle?
Orbry Waterproof Tile Backer Board
Orbry Tile Backer Boards ideal for waterproofing walls & floors, providing thermal insulation, dry lining and tile backing. When used in bathrooms you get a tile backer board, waterproofing, and insulation all in one! Orbry boards can also used as insulation boards and are the easiest solution for insulating and waterproofing a room in one quick & easy install.
Orbry Boards are insulated backer boards that are reinforced with glass fibre. The top coat on both sides of the Orbry Board is made of polymer-modified cement. Orbry boards provide a solid, waterproof layer to tile and are a cost effective way of insulating internal solid walls and creating a moisture barrier. They also create a fast track, insulated, low weight & height floor tiling system without screeds. Orbry boards absorb lateral movement and stop your tiles cracking over time.
We routinely see Orbry Boards used as waterproof backer boards, electric underfloor heating insulation and wet room construction.
Plastic Tile Backer Board Washers
The Orbry Tile Backer Board Washers are used to fix tile backer boards to stud walls and wooden floors. In order to properly fix the boards to the background substrate, use these washers with Orbry Stainless Steel Screws.
These plastic washers have been specially formulated to reduce pitting in the tile backer board surface when force is applied. They are also resistant to screw pull through for complete peace of mind, whilst the ultra low profile helps to prevent any lipping.
Note: 15 tile backer board washers & screws are required per tile backer board. They come in packs of 50 or 500.
Stainless Steel Tile Backer Board Screws
The Orbry Stainless Steel Screws are used to screw tile backer boards and cement boards to wooden and timber floors.
These screws are available in multiple sizes and quantities and are made from durable stainless steel. These stainless steel screws are sold in packets of 50 and 500, ranging sizes from 1 inch to 2.75 inches.
Note: 15 tile backer board washers & screws are required per tile backer board. They come in packs of 50 or 500.
Marmox Self Adhesive Waterproofing Roll
The Marmox Self-Adhesive Waterproofing Tape is used to waterproof the joint between tile backer boards and wet room shower trays.
It creates a waterproof seal over these joins and is self-adhesive for easy application.
Marmox Self-Adhesive Waterproofing Tape comes on 10m rolls. Overlap joints and use waterproofing corners as appropriate.
How to install tile backer boards to a stud wall
Preparation: For a stud wall build with 600mm centres, use 20mm backer board or thicker. 10mm and 12.5mm thick boards require studs at 300mm centres. All board edges should be supported.
Fixing:Use a tile backer board screws and washers every 300mm on each stud. The washers prevent pitting in the board surface. When a stud is at 600mm centres, use 20 rows of 5 fixings. At 300mm centres, use 3 rows of 5 fixings.
Tiling: Be sure to tape all the joints with scrim tape, except in wet areas where the Marmox Self-Adhesive Waterproof tape should be used. The boards are now ready to be tiled.
Plastering: Seal boards together using a bead of Evo-Stik prior to scrim-taping, do not use Waterproof tape under plaster. The boards are now ready to be plastered.
