Tactile Drilling Template 1200 x 600mm — Hazard TGSI

What hole size and spacing does the template use?

288 holes at 8mm diameter, set out on a 50mm grid across the full 1200 x 600mm panel.

Which tactile studs does it suit?

Any drill-in tactile indicator stud that seats into an 8mm hole, which covers our full stud range. The studs run a 6mm stem into an 8mm drilled hole.

Can I use it for directional tactile indicators?

No. This is the hazard (warning) grid layout only. Directional bars use different spacing and need a directional template.

Can I cut it down to size?

Yes. Aluminium composite cuts cleanly with a utility knife or jigsaw, so you can trim the panel for narrower runs or build staggered arrangements at crossings where a solid block of studs isn't appropriate.

Will it work on uneven pavement?

It's a rigid panel, so it works best on flat substrate — concrete, new slabs and pavers. On heavily contoured surfaces it won't sit flush, and a flexible template is the better tool.

How many templates do I need for a wide run?

Usually one. The panel covers 1200 x 600mm per lay, and for wider runs you leapfrog it along, picking up off the last row of holes so the 50mm grid stays continuous.

Is it reusable?

Yes. It's a set-out tool, not a consumable — it comes off the job and goes onto the next one.
