55mm Tubed Insulation Washer RAWLPLUG KCX (box of 400 washers) is a universal insulation washer with integral cap designed for fixing and securing thermal insulation materials to the wooden and sheet metal substrates.
RAWLPLUG KCX 55mm is recommended for the attachment of External Wall Insulation Boards to wooden substrates using UC screws, or to sheet metal using WB screws (allows setting without pre-drilling, thus saving a stage of installation).
The unique design with a long tube allows the use of a short length of the screw for the best cost effective solution to fix large thermal insulation thickness.
Tubed Insulation Washer KCX is suitable for use with External Wall Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) on metal, wood and timber and concrete substrates.
Specification:
Length: 55mm
Plate diameter: 60mm
Application: External Wall Insulation Systems (EWI)

RAWLPLUG KCX Installation guide:
· Lightly insert KCX washer into surface of insulation material.
· Drive the required screw through the washer and insulation material into the substrate, until fixing depth is reached.
· In wooden substrates the washer is recommended for use with the UC chipboard screw.
· In sheet metal the washer is recommended for use with either the WB or WX self-drilling screws.

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.
