With HECO-TOPIX-plus CC, HECO offers an efficient solution for connecting main and secondary beams. The specially developed fully threaded screw enables gap-free, deformation-resistant connections in just one step.
Whether in new construction, renovation, or timber engineering, stable main/secondary beam connections are crucial for the load-bearing capacity of modern timber structures. The HECO-TOPIX-plus CombiConnect was specially developed for the safe transfer of high tensile and compressive forces and, thanks to its coordinated double thread, ensures an active pulling-together effect. This means that components are fixed to the shear joint in a force-fit manner and permanently connected without gaps. The screw is available in diameters of 6.5 and 8.5 mm and in lengths from 100 to 350 mm and has a certificate of usability (ETA-19/0553). A screw-in angle of 45 degrees ensures maximum stability, while the proven HECO-TOPIX-plus tip generally eliminates the need for pre-drilling and reduces the risk of wood cracks. As part of a comprehensive system solution including installation aids, dimensioning software, BIM/CAD data, and technical advice, HECO supports planners and users in the safe and economical implementation of timber construction.
