Thermal Break Washers and Bushings

Structural Thermal Break connections increase the overall effectiveness of the Thermal Break system they are used in conjunction with.,

STB-1 Thermal Break washers and bushings can be used on the warm face of the structure, and including a thermal break at the bolt connection will reduce heat loss an additional 4% per bolt, depending on the wall assembly connection. Without these thermal break solutions, condensation can occur on the bolt heads which can develop into damp and mold issues.
