What screw-attached, masonry-veneer anchors do you like to see with mineral-wool board insulation?
We have metal stud backup with gyp sheathing, then 2 inches mineral-wool, then 4 inch nominal CMU.
Is something like Heckmann's Pos-I-Tie ok? http://www.heckmannbuildingprods.com/Pos-I-Tie_Solutions.html
Is something that goes through the mineral-wool board, like Hohmann and Barnard X-Seal, ok? http://www.h-b.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=93_76_8&products_id=131
Or do we need to use anchors that the insulation wedges between, like Hohmann and Barnard BL-407? http://www.h-b.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=144
I don't have experience with mineral-wool. |

I would prefer the H&B 200/300 series (look under seismic anchors). This is a shelf type anchor which provides support for the insulation panels. There are also small clips which snap onto the anchor and retain the insulation panels (the clips were by Thermafiber, and not H&B). |
