Our plates are available in bespoke shapes, sizes, and materials, ensuring they can be used for many specific applications across slope stabilisation, retaining walls, heritage conservation, and beyond. Below, you’ll find detailed descriptions of our most popular solutions.

Formed Pattress Plate

Formed Pattress Plates are designed for retaining walls and slope stabilisation, offering a high degree of flexibility in installation angles. These plates are paired with Domed Load Nuts to securely terminate the anchor bar.

Features:

  • Bespoke shapes and sizes available.
  • High flexibility for angle adjustments.

Applications:

  • Retaining walls.
  • Slope stabilisation requiring varied installation angles.

Recessed Pattress Plate

The Recessed Pattress Plate is ideal for projects where aesthetics are critical. It offers a flush-finished appearance with hidden terminations, making it perfect for heritage sites and high-traffic areas where safety and appearance are paramount.

Features:

  • Flush finish for a clean aesthetic.
  • Hidden terminations for safety and design integrity.

Applications:

  • Heritage and conservation works.
  • Public areas where safety is essential.

Wedge Boss Pattress Plate

The Wedge Boss Pattress Plate provides high load transfer while allowing anchors to be driven at angles of up to 45 degrees. Its flexibility makes it suitable for challenging installations.

Features:

  • Supports angled installations up to 45 degrees.
  • High load transfer capability.

Applications:

  • Complex anchoring projects requiring angled flexibility.

Flat Pattress Plate

Flat Pattress Plates are versatile solutions designed primarily for slope stabilisation where anchors are driven perpendicular to the surface. However, they can also accommodate angled installations when paired with tapered washers. These plates can be secured using either bars with load nuts or wires with barrel and wedge grips.

Features:

  • Bespoke shapes and sizes available.
  • Compatible with a variety of Vulcan anchor sizes.
  • Flexible for angled requirements with tapered washers.

Applications:

  • Slope stabilisation projects.
  • Infrastructure requiring secure anchoring.

Flat Pattress Plate with Wire

This variant of the Flat Pattress Plate replaces the lock nut with a barrel and wedge grip, allowing for use with wire instead of bar. This design offers additional flexibility for projects requiring different anchoring methods with smaller loads or shorter install depths.

Features:

  • Bespoke shapes and sizes available.
  • Flexible securing options using wire systems.

Applications:

  • Projects requiring adaptable anchoring techniques.

Tapered Washer Pattress Plate

Tapered Washers are used with Flat Pattress Plates for applications requiring flexible installation angles for up to 20 degrees and can support high load capacities.

Features:

  • Designed for high-load applications.
  • Allows for angled installations when paired with Flat Pattress Plates.

Applications:

  • Projects requiring both flexibility and strength.

Combi-Tech Anchor

The Combi-Tech Anchor System is specifically designed for stabilising damaged masonry structures, making it ideal for heritage, listed building renovations, and refurbishment projects.

  • Heritage conservation.
  • Masonry stabilisation for historic and listed buildings.

Vulcan Anchor Drain

The Vulcan Anchor Drain system addresses water pressure in slopes or retaining walls through a retro-fit drainage membrane. It utilises a length of Mem?braDrain wicking material secured to the Vulcan anchor head, ensuring immediate drainage and slope stability upon installation.

Features:

  • Instantly reduces water pressure and prevents ground saturation.
  • Rapid and cost-effective installation.
  • Retro-fit solution for embankment stability.
