A wall tie bracket 1 for attachment to a vertical stud 2 of a wall frame comprises an inner end 3 for engaging a wall and an outer end 7 having an aperture 10 for engaging a wall tie. The bracket is of integrally moulded plastics construction. It may comprise an inner end having a vertical planar wall 4 with two male keyhole fastener locks 5. The two locks may be located one directly above the other, and shaped to extend outwardly from the wall to engage behind corresponding keyhole apertures in a stud. The bracket may also comprise three horizontal ribs 6 extending from the inner end to an outer end. The outer end may have a wall 9 laterally offset and parallel to the inner end wall as viewed in plan. The outer end may also have a vertical slot for engagement with a wall tie. The bracket may be of integrally moulded Nylon material with 50% glass. In use, it is therefore a heat insulator and so avoids cold bridging across a cavity and also, it is safe and convenient to handle and inexpensive to manufacture. |
