For supporting walls round corners

Angle-bracket anchor WK-E

Corner supported with MOSO angle-bracket anchors type WK-E.

The MOSO angle-bracket anchor type WK-E is the typical corner bracket anchor.

It is not necessary to cut the frost-resistant bricks, since the support is not interrupted by gusset plates.

Your advantages at a glance:

  • No interfering connecting plates in the area of the masonry, so no need for any additional brick cutting
  • Many of the components for the MOSO angle bracket anchors are prefabricated; only the connecting plate (central metal component) and the length of the angle need to be cut to size on-site to suit the specific fastening situation (wall clearance, wall length, height). Our high-capacity laser systems (up to 6 kW) cut the connecting plates in seconds, incl. the position inscription.
  • Each angle element is labelled with assembly instructions and job and position number
  • Wall clearances greater than 200 mm are also possible for increased  thermal insulation. As well as our MOSO support brackets, we will also obtain specific approval for our air gap wire anchor based on DIN 1053
  • We also supply the matching, approved air gap wire anchors at low cost

Angle-bracket anchor WK-E

Use and application

  • Particularly suitable for supporting corners
  • Highly suitable for supporting with continuous angled rails for which the frost-resistant bricks cannot be cut.
  • The brackets must be fully supported until the brick mortar has set hard.
