3. Produktuaren osagaiak
The Fischer Thermax 10/160 M6 system includes the following main components:
- Thermax Double-Threaded Screw: The core component, designed to mill through plaster and insulation.
- Anti-Cold Cone: A glass-fiber reinforced plastic cone that interrupts the thermal bridge.
- UX Universal Anchor: For secure anchoring in various building materials.
- SX Anchor: (Included in some kits, check packaging)
- Txapelak: For finishing the installation.

4. Konfigurazioa eta instalazioa
Follow these steps for proper installation of the Fischer Thermax 10/160 M6 system:
- Prepare the Mounting Point:
Identify the desired mounting location. Drill a hole through the insulation and into the base material (e.g., concrete, masonry) using an appropriate drill bit. The drill diameter and depth depend on the anchor type and base material. For the UX 12x70 anchor, a 12mm drill bit is typically used.

Figure 4.1: Drilling the pilot hole for the Thermax system.
- Txertatu aingura:
Insert the UX universal anchor into the drilled hole until it is flush with the base material behind the insulation. Ensure a snug fit.
- Install the Thermax Screw:
Place the anti-cold cone onto the double-threaded screw. Drive the double-threaded screw through the insulation and into the anchor using a suitable driver (e.g., a hex bit or wrench). The screw's self-milling feature will cut through the plaster and insulation. Continue turning until the anti-cold cone is firmly seated against the insulation surface.

Figure 4.2: Driving the Thermax screw into the pre-drilled hole and anchor.
- Lotu euskarria:
Once the Thermax screw is securely installed, you can attach your fixture (e.g., light, mailbox, sign) to the exposed threaded end of the screw. Use appropriate nuts and washers to secure the fixture firmly.

- Apply Finishing Cap (Optional):
If included in your kit, place the finishing cap over the exposed nut for a clean aesthetic and added protection.

Example 4: Mounting a larger pipe or conduit.
5. Funtzionamendu-argibideak
The Fischer Thermax 10/160 M6 is a passive mounting system. Once installed, its primary function is to securely hold the attached fixture while minimizing thermal bridging. There are no active "operating" steps for the system itself.
Ensure that the attached fixture is within the load limits specified for the Thermax system and the base material. Regularly inspect the fixture and the mounting point for any signs of loosening or damage, especially after extreme weather conditions.
6. Mantentzea
The Fischer Thermax system requires minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection is recommended to ensure long-term stability and safety.
- Ikus-ikuskapena: Periodically check the mounted fixture and the Thermax connection point for any visible signs of wear, corrosion, cracks, or loosening.
- Estutasun-egiaztapena: If accessible and safe to do so, gently check the tightness of the nuts securing the fixture. Do not overtighten.
- Garbiketa: Keep the area around the mounting point clean from debris that might accumulate.
- Kalteak: If any damage is observed, consult a professional for assessment and repair. Do not attempt to repair damaged components yourself.
7. Arazoak
Atal honek instalazioan zehar edo ondoren sor daitezkeen arazo ohikoenei buruzko informazioa ematen du.
| Arazoa | Kausa posiblea | Irtenbidea |
|---|---|---|
| Screw does not engage anchor. | Incorrect drill hole diameter or depth; anchor not fully seated; wrong anchor type for base material. | Verify drill bit size and depth. Ensure anchor is fully inserted. Use the correct anchor for your specific base material. |
| Fixture feels loose after installation. | Insufficient tightening; anchor failure; base material damage. | Ensure nuts are tightened to recommended torque (if specified). Re-evaluate base material integrity. If anchor failed, consider re-drilling in a new location or using a larger anchor/system if appropriate. |
| Thermal bridge still present. | Anti-cold cone not properly seated against insulation. | Ensure the anti-cold cone is flush and tightly seated against the insulation surface. |
