Structural Thermal Break Systems Canada

Benchmark proudly stocks STB-1 Structural Thermal Break Systems and TBF-3 Thermal Break in Canada. Since these material are in stock we are capable of providing very fast turnaround on an expedited basis. As required, Benchmark also has the capacity to fabricate Thermal Break washers and Thermal Break Bushings in house.

Industrial-grade thermal break pads for machinery - reinforced isolation pads that reduce heat transfer by 75% and dampen vibrations in Canadian manufacturing plants and power facilities.

STB-1 Structural Thermal Break

High strength, structural grade thermal break material

Ideal for shear connections and other applications where high mechanical properties are required.

 

 

 

Thermal break foam insulation strip for building envelopes – high R-value, moisture-resistant foam barrier reducing thermal bridging in Canadian climates

TBF High Density Thermal Break

Available in 4 different densities TBF-150, TBF-200, TBF-280 and TBF-310

TBF Thermal Break features a specialized, rigid composition engineered for maximum thermal resistance. Engineered in multiple grades to accommodate specific load-bearing requirements, it provides a seamless thermal barrier for high-performance construction and cold storage environments.

Multi-purpose thermal break washers and bushings - insulators preventing thermal bridging in Canadian industrial machinery AND building envelopes (balcony connections, curtain walls)

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.
