CS Cavity Sliders can be configured to include a half or full sheet of ply panel in place of nogs on one side of the pocket. This is useful for situations where additional fixing is required on the wall where the cavity pocket is located, for example if a grab rail or towel rail is to be fitted in a bathroom.

For heavy tiles or if the cavity pocket is to form part of the shower enclosure it is recommended that the cavity pocket is manufactured with a 17mm H3.1 sheet of plywood in the frame. Double lining the cavity pocket with suitable wall board and tile substrate will also provide additional protection.

CS Cavity Sliders with ply panels have been tested to meet the requirements of AS 1720.1, 2010 and support a load of up to 50kg/m2. Installation of all components must be as per the manufacturer’s instructions to be compliant.
