The Button Fix Type 1 Metal Fix is designed for professional contractors and fabricators working on high-performance projects that require maximum durability and fire resistance. This all-metal fastener provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection ideal for marine interiors, fire-retardant paneling, and high-impact environments. While it offers superior structural reliability compared to plastic variants, users should ensure precise measurements during installation to accommodate its rigid, non-adjustable mechanical nature.

Yes, it is designed to integrate with the standard Button-fix family, though metal is recommended for the final installation.
The ZL2 zinc alloy has a melting temperature of 440 degrees Celsius.
It is highly resistant to corrosion due to the stainless-steel spring, making it suitable for protected outdoor or marine interior environments.
Use high-quality screws compatible with the substrate you are mounting to, ensuring the heads do not interfere with the latching mechanism.
While structurally strong, always verify local building codes regarding the load-bearing requirements for ceiling-mounted heavy panels.
Check alignment of the male and female components. Ensure there is no debris inside the metal recess preventing the spring from seating correctly.
Verify that the fastener is screwed flush against the panel surface; any gap will result in play within the connection.
Installation requires standard woodworking tools but demands strict adherence to the specified drilling templates to ensure the metal brackets align.
For care, periodically inspect the panel for signs of movement. While the metal alloy does not require maintenance, ensure the surrounding panel material remains structurally sound, as the longevity of the installation depends on the integrity of the substrate.
