Abstract: A fixing disc (1) for initially fixing a fastening element (2) in an opening of a component to be fastened, in particular a facade panel, during mounting of the fastening element (2) and for cutting into and/or removing a defined region of a protective film on the component to be fastened during mounting of the fastening element (2) is described. The fixing disc (1) has a fixing means for initially holding the fastening element (2) in a predetermined position relative to the opening during mounting of the fastening element (2), at least one connecting means (4) for at least temporarily producing a connection between the fixing disc (1) and the fastening element (2), and at least one cutting and/or friction means (5) on that side of the fixing disc (1) which faces the component to be fastened.

Abstract: Fastening system (1) for fastening an attachment (18) to a substrate (13) with an insulation layer (16), the fastening system (1) comprising an anchor bolt (2), with a first area (3) for anchoring in the substrate (13), a second area (4) to which the attachment (18) can be fastened, and a stop (5), a mounting tool (6) to form an opening in the insulation layer (16), and a sealing element (7) adapted to be disposed at the stop (5) after the mounting tool (6) has been removed and to seal the opening in the insulation layer (16) as well as a corresponding method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fixed or sliding screw with a screw head and a screw shaft which has a threaded section. The screw head has a torque transmitting section for rotating the fixed or sliding screw about a screw axis which is concentric to the screw head and the screw shaft. The screw head has a collar section at the screw head end facing the threaded section. A buffer element made of an elastic plastic is arranged on the collar section side facing away from the torque transmitting section, and a sliding disk is arranged on the buffer element side facing away from the collar section.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fire protection device for hung back-ventilated facades, comprising a closure element which is designed to close a gap in a hung back-ventilated facade in the event of a fire, and which can be moved between an open position and a closed position, wherein a tension element is provided which impinges the closure element into the closed position and which can be moved between a pretensioned position and a closing position, wherein the closure element is retained in the pretensioned position by means of a securing element, wherein the securing element is designed in such a way that it releases the closure element when a temperature threshold value is exceeded.
