OVERVIEW
The Stitch Tie Bar is used to repair cracked masonry and can provide reinforcement to create structural beams from existing brick veneers. The bars are manufactured of Type 304 stainless steel (Type 316 available upon request). The Stitch Tie Bars and SureGrout provide excellent bonding characteristics within the masonry. When used together, Stitch Tie Bars offer a superb combination of axial strength and flexibility, which helps absorb further localized stress. They are installed in existing mortar bed joints that have had mortar removed to accommodate the bar and grout material.
