Steel & Wood Decks - The fastener must penetrate steel and wood decks a minimum of 3/4".
Structural Concrete Decks - The fastener must penetrate structural concrete decks a minimum of 1". Pre-drill a 3/16" pilot hole at least 1/2" deeper than fastener embedment using a carbide tip SDS or straight shank bit.
Drive the fastener until a slight depression is seen around the plate, or with very rigid insulation boards, watch for the plate to dimple.
NOTE: Prior to job-start, contact OMG to perform a pullout test to determine pullout values. Also, case must be taken not to overdrive the fastener causing subsequent damage to the insulation facer. The fastener must be tight enough so that the plate does not turn.
