The T-hang M5-Long is an addition to Temart´s standard T-hang M4
and M5. The purpose of this long varirant is to handle "difficult walls"
The T-hang M5-Long´s prime characteristics are:
- Special developed for walls with thick layer of plaster and brick walls
- Usable for different types of hanging system
- Adjustable height and width
- Anti-theft construction
- Load up to 40 kg/ T-hanger
- Usable on any type of wall
- Easy to use and time-saving
- Reusable
The T-hang M5-Long's adaptability becomes clear in handling loaned artworks. When different types of screw loops or similar are used in an exhibition, the T-hanger makes handling easier and prevents theft of hung objects. Reusability, as well as quick and secure mounting make the T-hanger a good investment.
Target Group
The T-hang M5-long is specially suitable for walls with thick layer of plaster, concrete and brick walls. This kind of walls you often find in older buildings such as churches. It can also be used for exchange exhibitions, art in public spaces, art Galleries, museums and the discerning private collector. With a T-hang in the wall, it will usually not be necessary to make any physical intervention into artworks loaned for an exhibition.

The T-Hanger is entirely manufactured in strong and durable industrial steel. Electric galvanisation gives strong rust and abrasion protection.

Accessories
Ozzy
For the model T-5, the accessory ""Ozzy"" is standard, enabling hanging of round screw loops as well as oval and rectangular hanging devices which may appear on loaned artworks. Ozzy consists of two components, the lower one enabling adjustment of height and the locking of hanging devices of different types. The other component is a washer with a long tongue to simplify mounting and contribute to anti-theft function. The washer is not always necessary to secure the artwork, but is always included in the delivery.
T-Scew
The T-Screw is used for quick and simple screwing in of the T-hanger into a wall. By using the T-Screw, both the T-hanger and the wall behind are protected from unnecessary damage and time for mounting is minimised.
Flexdrive with magnetic sleeve
The Flex drive allows you to mount or remove the cupola nut. The Flex drive which is extendable up to 45 cm is used as an ordinary screw driver. At the end of the Flex drive there is purpose made magnetic sleeve which will hold the cupola nut in the correct position.
Delivery
The T-hang M5 Long is sold complete with adjustment nuts (ozzy), and lock nuts in packages containing 10 complete T-hang M5 long units.
Flex drive is delivered with a fixed magnetic sleeve. You can choose M4, M5 or M6
Mounting
General
The T-Hanger is quick and simple to mount. The use of correct
accessories makes it simpler to work effectively and to reuse
the T-Hanger for many years. The T-Screw makes work even easier
and ensures that the wall and the T-Hanger cannot be damaged during
mounting.
Whatever the wall material, the following points must be
observed when the T-Hanger is in use:
- The T-Hanger must be screwed into the wall by hand. If
normal hand pressure is insufficient, then the hole or the plug
is too small, or too shallow. Drill the hole and/or change the plug!
- The vertical plate must never be screwed into the wall
damaging the wall paint . The plate still fulfils its stabilising
function even if it lies 3 mm away from the wall.
- Stabilise the T-Hanger when mounting in porous material
with a pin in the plate hole. The pin must not be hammered fully
into the wall. Leave 5 mm sticking out so that dismantling is quicker.
Mounting in wood and planks
The T-Hanger's wood screw is suitable for mounting directly into wood or wooden planks. A 3.5 mm pre-drilling simplifies the mounting. When mounting heavier objects in chipboard, the use of plastic plugs is recommended to increase the load tolerance of the hole in the chipboard.
Mounting in plasterboard
When mounting in plaster walls, the T-Hanger can be used without plugs if the objects does not weigh more than 5 kg. Pre drill in the same way as for wooden planks. The drill diameter can be reduced to 2 mm. For heavier objects, a 6 or 8 mm plaster plug can stabilise a hole in plasterboard.
Mounting in concrete wall
When mounting in concrete or brick walls, suitable plugs must be used. See sketch. Follow instructions for predrilling and screw dimensions given with plugs.
