Locusrite Launches Complete Base Track Installation System for ETICS Applications
Locusrite has expanded its ETICS product portfolio with the introduction of a complete base track installation system, providing distributors, merchants and installers with everything required to create a secure and professional starting point for external wall insulation systems.
The launch includes three complementary products: the ALBT Aluminium Base Starter Track, ALTHAM Hammer-in Anchor Screw, and ALTSPACE Base Track Spacer Piece.
Together, these products have been designed to simplify installation, improve alignment and enhance the long-term performance of ETICS systems.
ALBT – Aluminium Base Starter Track
The ALBT Aluminium Base Starter Track provides a secure starting point for insulation boards, helping to protect board edges and ensure accurate alignment above the damp-proof course.
Manufactured from high-quality hard aluminium, the profile delivers excellent rigidity and durability while maintaining ease of installation. Available in a wide range of widths to suit different insulation thicknesses, the starter track offers a practical solution for a variety of ETICS applications.
ALTHAM – Hammer-in Anchor Screw
Designed specifically for securing base profiles within ETICS systems, the ALTHAM Hammer-in Anchor Screw provides a fast and reliable fixing solution.
Featuring a mushroom-shaped head and integrated metal drive pin, the anchor offers strong pull-through resistance while ensuring firm contact between the profile and substrate. Its simple hammer-in design helps speed up installation without compromising performance.
ALTSPACE – Base Track Spacer Piece
Completing the system is the ALTSPACE Base Track Spacer Piece, developed to assist with levelling uneven substrates during base track installation.
Manufactured from durable PVC, the spacer helps maintain straight, consistent profile alignment while preventing deformation during fixing. Available in multiple thicknesses and colour-coded for easy identification, the spacer provides a simple solution to common on-site challenges.
A Complete ETICS Solution
By combining starter tracks, fixings and spacers within one coordinated range, Locusrite continues to support the growing demands of the ETICS market with practical, high-quality products that simplify installation and help deliver reliable long-term system performance.
