  • Brick tie, in moulded plastic
    Patent number: 6212841
    Abstract: For holding brick cladding to a stud frame structure, the brick-tie is a one-piece moulding in plastic. The moulding has a vertical arm, which is secured to the stud by a nail, and a horizontal arm, which is mortar'd between courses of bricks. The nail is located near the junction between the arms, and the junction is chunky enough to be inflexible. The bridge, which spans the space between the bricks and the stud, is also thick enough to be inflexible.
