The dove-tail stamping makes it very easy to catch the CS-screws and push together the connector. It also ensures tightness.







RICON consists of two identical parts. It is made of premium quality steel, is hot dip galvanized and produced in Austria.






Ø 5 mm and Ø 8 mm RICON CS-screws with Torx 25 drive. These adjustable holding-screws compensate fabrication tolerances. The reinforced shaft with integrated stop guarantees exact positioning.







Clip in the stainless spring steel stirrup into the locating slots prior to final assembly. It locks the connection against the slide-in direction and can be released again.

RICON S for main and secondery beam

RICON S is used for static highly stressed, concealed joining main/secondary beams, for timber framing or prefabrication. Complete modules, such as dormers and gazebos, can be prefabricated and so reduce assembly time extensive. RICON S is not only suitable for wood to wood constructions, but also to connect it onto steel, concrete or other compact materials.

Light hooking by V-expression and after adjustable collar bolt tightening (tolerance ≤5 mm)

Security against the insertion direction with optional clip lock (lift-off loads)

Short hook way of 35 mm – canting of secondary beam is avoided

Variable installation depth of 12.5 until 25 mm

Three- and four-sided concealed connection (Fire protection – F30 constructions ≥ 20 mm around it)

Can be milled into main/secondary beam

Simple screw with self-drilling full-thread screws

Statically proofen main/secondary beam connection

The V-shape moulding provides perfect catch of the collar bolt. The strong tension and the short slide-in alleviates the connecting and guarantees joint sealing. The V-shape molding (similar to a dovetail) self-tightening connection.



RICON S is made of premium quality steel, hot-dip
galvanized and produced in Austria.



KNAPP CS-screws with cut point for extra fast starts
and screwing. The reinforced shaft provides force-fit
connection.



The RICON S clip lock, made from stainless spring steel
locks the connection against slide-in direction and is used
for stress against slide-in direction or wind suction. One
pair consists of two identical parts.

 

There are different versions of the collar bolt available for RICON S which offers three different connection options.

RICON S-System collar bolts
