X-SEAL
ANCHOR SYSTEM
FEATURED ANCHOR! The new X-SEAL Anchor is the next generation veneer anchor from H&B. The X-SEAL® Anchor improves upon the original DW-10-X® by moving the horizontal pronged legs in from each end, enabling the backplate portion of the anchor to effectively seal the wallboard/insulation. This helps to maintain the integrity of the vapor barrier and prevents the ingress of air and moisture through the sheathing. For specifications on X-SEAL go to www.h-b.com/spec22

REINFORCEMENT SYSTEM
DUB'L LOOP LOK™ offers features not available on typical hook-and-eye joint reinforcement assemblies. The vertical closed loops provide 100% protection against separation of the masonry wire tie from the reinforcement, and they will not clog with mortar as construction progresses. The loops are also welded shut and masons cannot install the wire tie beyond allowable eccentricity, thus maintaining structural integrity.
