Deck Jak® Tile Support Components
|
Deck Jak® Tile Support
Made from UV resistant polypropylene.
Colour: Black.
We have three head-options available.
 |
Narrow Fin
This is our most popular Deck Jak® tile support and is suitable for use with Timber Panels, Structural Tiles, Natural Stone and Pavers.
|
 |
Wide Fin
This Deck Jak® tile support has 8mm spacers on the support plate. This version is suitable for compressed sheet with a tile over-lay. The tile overhangs the compressed sheet by 2mm each side, reducing the over-all gap to 4mm (may vary slightly due to tile inconsistencies). This solution allows a large range of exterior tiles to be used with this system
|
 |
Timber Top©
This Deck Jak® support is designed for floating-deck configurations and has large fins either side of the head, to which the timber 'joist' is attached. The fins are spaced to accommodate 45mm timber and are grooved to allow ease of fixing using either nails or screws.
Spacing of Timber Top© supports should be in accordance with NZS3604 2011 (section 7) - joist spans.

Deck Jak® Spacer
We have two sizes available - These fit underneath the Deck Jak® tile support. They can be stacked to achieve the required lift and are designed to be used beneath a Deck Jak® tile support, not independently.
20mm Deck Jak® Spacer
The Deck Jak® Spacer clips snugly beneath the Deck Jak® tile support. They are stackable, with each one providing an additional 20mm lift. Drainage ports are included in the design to alleviate water stagnation problems. These are fully integratable with the NEW 50mm Deck Jak® Spacer. The 110mm diameter base provides a very solid platform.
50mm Deck Jak® Spacer
The 50mm Deck Jak® Spacer is Urban Building Product's recent addition, and has been developed to meet the ever growing demand by customers to evolve the system.The 50mm Deck Jak® Spacer, like the 20mm version, clips snugly beneath the Deck Jak® tile support and is stackable, providing an additional 50mm lift each. The base of this version is comparable to the 20mm.
The photo to the left shows the view from above a Deck Jak® Spacer. Only the flat base comes into contact with the waterproof membrane. All parts in contact have smooth rounded edges. The drainage ports shown allow water to drain from the Deck Jak® Spacer and are similar to the drainage ports in the base of the Deck Jak® tile supports. This eliminates stagnant water smells.
200mm Diameter Deck Jak® Base Plate with additional 2° fall compensation.
The 200mm Diameter Deck Jak® Base Plate. This product sits under any Deck Jak® tile support configuration. As well as negating any adverse effects on the ratings of acoustic membranes, the built-in fall compensation allows the Deck Jak® tile support System to be used on up to 4° falls, doubling the current allowance of the stand-alone Deck Jak® tile support. Made from RECYCLED Polycarbonate.
The photo to the left shows a Narrow Fin Deck Jak® tile support seated on a combination of 20mm and 50mm Deck Jak® Spacers.
The deck will need to be fully enclosed to ensure there is no chance of any lateral (sideways) movement. This stacking system provides a very stable base for the Deck Jak® tile support, and tiled surface. The NEW 50mm Deck Jak® Spacer allows more stability than ever on high (up to 400mm) support, pedestrian areas.
