GoBoard Fasteners & Washers for Tile Backer Board
GoBoard Fasteners are designed for securing compatible GoBoard tile backer board panels to wood or metal framing as part of tile and waterproofing assemblies. Available fastening components include Hi-Lo fasteners for wood framing, self-drilling fasteners for metal framing, and GoBoard washers that help distribute fastening loads across the panel surface. Fastener type, length, framing compatibility, and installation requirements vary by product and panel application.
Types of GoBoard Fastening Components
Hi-Lo Fasteners
GoBoard Hi-Lo fasteners are designed for attaching compatible GoBoard panels to wood framing. The appropriate fastener should be selected according to the panel thickness, framing, and requirements of the specific GoBoard installation.
Self-Drilling Fasteners
Self-drilling GoBoard fasteners provide an option for compatible metal framing applications. Their design allows the fastener to engage suitable metal studs while securing the backer board panel in the required position.
Washers
GoBoard washers are used with compatible fasteners to distribute fastening loads over a larger area of the foam backer board. Washer and fastener requirements depend on the panel, substrate or framing, and installation method.
Choosing GoBoard Fasteners & Washers
Choose GoBoard fastening components according to the framing material, panel thickness, installation area, and applicable GoBoard system requirements. Verify that the fastener and washer combination is compatible with the specific panel and wood or metal framing before selection.
