The MFSLIP CMS40 system is a mechanically fixed brick slip cladding support system that combines the appearance of traditional brickwork with a lightweight, ventilated and drained rainscreen construction. The system is A1 fire rated, CWCT certified, BS 8414 tested and BBA certified, making it suitable for high-rise buildings over 18m, low-rise buildings, new-builds and retrofit applications across a wide range of substrates.
The system accommodates a wide variety of brick slips in metric, imperial and long formats. Brick slips are precision-cut to a standard thickness of 22 ± 2mm, while the system can support slips up to 65mm thick.
The MFSLIP CMS40 provides a durable, low-maintenance façade solution and is backed by a 25-year warranty.

Fix Helping Hand Brackets to the substrate. Keep a maximum spacing of 600mm horizontally and 1200mm.
Place stone wool insulation in a staggered arrangement, securing it with a central washer and perimeter fixings positioned between adjoining slabs.
Attach T/L rails to the Helping Hand Brackets. Employ one bracket as a fixed anchor point and brackets with slotted points for the remaining connections.
Secure Horizontal Support Rails to the T/L rails. Align them precisely with the brick slips, creating a 10mm gap. Utilize the gauge tool for streamlined attachment of multiple rail courses.
Position brick slips meticulously between rails, following the upper and lower grooves for guidance. Preserve a consistent 10mm gap by employing metal brick spacers.
Upon completing the placement of brick slips, inject the joints with Parex Historic mortar to achieve an authentic clay brick appearance.
