Fastmount™ presents its heavy-duty clips. While all Fastmount™ clips feature the ability to allow for flex, and hold panels securely, the heavy-duty clip is primarily designed to be used with bigger, heavier panels. This means customers have a greater range of panel mounting options yet still enjoy the usual benefits from the Fastmount™ panel mounting system
The Fastmount™ system achieves perfect alignment and panels can quickly and easily be removed and refitted to exactly the same location every time.

PC-SVMX clips
Fastmount™ has introduced a new heavy-duty clip with a screw fixing to its Standard Range, the PC-SVMX clip aims to further simplify installation of interior panels in the architectural market. The clip has a 15kg pull out load and 100kg shear load making it suitable for installing heavier wall panels and ceiling panels without visible fixings
PC-SVMX clips have the qualities of the popular Fastmount™ PC-VMX clip, including a sturdy head shape and strong shear load, but removes the self-tapping base in favour of three screw holes, which helps it provide rapid installation without special tools. Unlike the PC-VMX, the PC-SVMX can be installed without the red CT-01ST centrepoint tool, typically used for panel to wall alignment, thanks to a self-centring point on the back face.
Benefits
- Invisible panel fixing
- No special tools required for installation
- Extra heavy duty 15kg pull out load
