The stools MEGASTIL® are the principal accessory of fixing of the stud MEGASTIL®.

They are fixed in the structure using suitable means such as: � through bolt or steel anchor for concrete

� steel bolt, auto-drilling screw, ou filler metal

� Metallic coach screw for timber.

Stool 140-170-200-230

MEGASTIL® stools are located as well at the bottom and the top of MEGASTIL® studs. MEGASTIL® stools comprises one or two holes on the smallest return. They are bored on the large return of four oblong holes of 109mm length, which authorizes a free dilation of MEGASTIL® studs for fire resistance and makes it possible to resist to floor deformations. The width of the stools is adapted to the section of the framework.


Stool 100

The 109 mm holes on the large return of the stools allow to resist to floor deformation up to 30 m span with deflexion of 1/300 for example

L-brace EQC MEGASTIL®

L-brace EQC MEGASTIL® ensures the intermediate connection of MEGASTIL® stud with the structure in the case of partition wall lining.
