BAN wind bracing bands can be used in various construction applications, but they are primarily intended for the bracing of roof structures, where they function as tension rods.

Corrosion protection: 275 g/m² on both sides - corresponding to a zinc coating thickness of approximately 20 μm. BAN154025 and BAN154050 are made from the higher load-bearing S350GD steel; zinc coating thickness approximately 20 μm. BAN094050 is made from S550GD + Z275.

Attachment options: The connection to wood is made using CNA4.0xℓ comb nails or CSA5.0xℓ screws. The connection to the Simpson Strong-Tie wind bracing system is made with clips or M5x12 screws (strength 8.8).

Advantages: The versions BAN154025, BAN154050, BAN156050, BAN204025, and BAN204050 are equipped with a meter marking from 0.5 to 25 m, or 50 m.

Note: For greater loads, multiple bands can be installed side by side. In these cases, BNSP tensioning devices are recommended to allow for even tensioning of the bands. It must also be checked whether sufficient comb nails can be installed in the wind bracing band, considering the required edge distances, given the current rafter width. Otherwise, the rafter must be widened with auxiliary wood, or the wind bracing band must be connected to the wind bracing system.

Application: Versatile use in construction applications, specifically for the bracing of roof structures. Since the wind bracing band can only absorb tensile forces, at least two diagonally opposing bands must be used per area.

Fastening: Comb nails CNA4.0xl or screws CSA5.0xl. Also available in stainless steel (upon request). EN 14545.
