• Fastening:

HULK halo (S-series) or Chain Collated Clips must be used when installing Pioneer. The manufacturer cannot guarantee a successful install using other decking clip brands which could then affect your warranty.

Use two fasteners (hidden clips or top fixings) at every joist.

Boards wider than 150 mm (5.906”) require three fasteners per joist when top fixed.

Maintain a clip fastening distance of between 10 mm (0.379”) (minimum) and 20 mm (0.788”) (maximum) from the end of the board.

When top fixing boards (decking and fascia), ensure a spacing of 30 mm (1.182”) between fasteners and from any board edge.

Appropriate fasteners must be used when top fixing.

Do not over-tighten any fasteners. The torque setting of your driver must be less than 30% of the maximum allowable.
