140mm Insulation Panel Fixings LMX10 (Metal Pin Hammer Fix Anchors) are highly-durable, impact resistant fasteners designed to fix and secure insulation panels to the variety of substrates, used for Rockwool DD slabs, EPS (expanded polystyrene) and Kingspan K5 insulation boards.
The mechanical anchors are made from plastic and zinc coated carbon steel, which means that they reduce thermal bridging within the external wall insulation systems.
The metal pin is 10mm in width (hole diameter) this ensures the fixings are strong and don’t snap during the installation.
Metal pin mechanical fixings are used to fix the insulation boards (rigid and semi-rigid) to the brick, block, concrete and stone.
Fixings are mainly used with a combination of Rockwool dual density slabs, external wall EPS (expanded polystyrene) and Kingspan Kooltherm K5 phenolic boards.
Made of plastic and metal fixing is reducing a cold bridge meaning that the system maintains it's insulating qualities for years.
We recommend that any fixing used is 30mm to 60mm longer than the thickness of the insulation board to ensure it is strongly anchored to the wall.
Anchors are available in most common lengths: 70mm, 90mm, 120mm,140mm, 160mm, 180mm and 200mm.
Installation is simple, firstly drill the hole, secondly mount the anchor and gently hammer in the metal pin.
140mm fixings are recommended for 80mm, 90mm, 100mm and 110mm thick insulation panels / slabs.

Alternatively, you can work it out yourself quickly and easily: to get cost per meter square please divide price shown in orange area by ''Required area (m2)'' Example price of £28.80 divided by board coverage 2.88m2 = cost of £10.00 per m2.
INSTALLERS
No matter whether you choose a local installer or a national company, there’s a few tips to help you find the right installer for your home insulation improvements, such as asking for recommendations and making sure that they’re part of a certification scheme. This makes sure that they have the right skills and standards of workmanship to carry out the installation, and you can be sure that they know exactly what they are doing.
4 TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE BEST INSULATION INSTALLER
1. Thermal inspection picture in portfolio
It’s worth seeing a installer’s previous work. There’s no harm asking if you can see any properties nearby that they’ve installed insulation in. Best way would be to see Infrared Thermal Imaging Inspections. Thermal cameras spot small, but key changes in temperature in different areas of a house, identifying problematic areas that the human eye never could and some that a visual inspection could only hypothesize.
2. Reviews
Along with checking recommendations and previous work, finding reviews online can often be a great way to find out if they provide a good service or not. However, it’s best not to solely rely on reviews you may find or review websites, as there’s no controlling who writes them.
3. Compare prices
Comparing prices will also ensure companies can’t take advantage of you and give you a fair price.
4. Word of Mouth
The best way to find a great insulation installer is through recommendations. Make sure you ask friends and family. They will most likely give you their honest opinion and can tell you from first hand experience.
Whether you require a wall, cladding, external wall, loft or floor insulation fitted, you can find and hire your local insulation installers from popular UK web pages. A simple internet search will return thousands of potential installers near your area.
