ENGINEERING DATA SHEET

SURFACE IMPALER™

Primacoustic surface mount impalers are designed to provide the
installer with a simple, quick and effective method of mounting
Broadway™ fi berglass acoustic panels onto walls without causing
serious surface defacement. The surface mount impaler features a
series of sharp protruding darts that penetrate the panel to secure
it in place during installation. To ensure panels do not get dislodged
after installation, applying a dab of construction adhesive to the
impaler darts during the mounting process adds a level of security
and reduces opportunity for tampering. Impalers are installed using
typical sheetrock anchors and screws.

*Primacoustic recommends a certain number of impalers per panel as the minimum required
for safe installation based on panel depth and weight. For additional security, you may wish to
increase these numbers per panel and also combine with construction adhesive.
