Our valued clients
Designed specifically for masonry applications
Trusted masonry anchors
Our structural masonry anchors are purposely designed, seismically tested and fully mechanical structural system for connecting steel and timber members onto URM brick, concrete block and soft stone masonry.
The PYTHON MT is extensively tested in a wide range of masonry substrate materials and have opened doors to a wide range of structural solutions that were previously considered impractical or too costly to implement.
Minimally invasive and fully reversible, the PYTHON MT offers a mechanical structural connection to masonry that is quick, simple, and reliable.
Reliable Epoxy Alternative
Unbelievably fast installation
Python Structural masonry anchors offer faster and easier installation, with completion times up to 5 times quicker than epoxy anchors, thanks to reduced hole preparation and no curing time.
This results in significant time savings and costs about one-third the price of epoxy anchors, making it ideal for large-scale projects.
Unlike epoxy anchors, which are prone to failure from improper cleaning or mixing, Python MT ensures reliable performance. Specifically designed for masonry walls, its longer, thinner design prevents issues like brick pull-out, making it the superior choice for masonry anchoring.
PYTHON Tested Substrates
"A lot faster and much more reliable installation than any other products on the market! This is now a go to solution" - Project Manager
PYTHON structural fasteners have been comprehensively tested in a wise range of masonry, with design capacities available to suit many applications.
With over 1600 tests completed to date in 21 different substrates, PYTHON Fasteners has built an extensive library of technical design data that is available for use in your designs. Here a list of the tested substrates:
CLAY BRICK MASONRY
Soft, medium, and stiff clay bricks
Perforated brick
Extruded brick (vintage and modern)
Hollow (terracotta) clay brick
CONCRETE BLOCK MASONRY (CMU)
Ungrouted concrete blocks
