Introduction
The TWPro to KC Transition Locking Band - 150Ø is a purpose-built accessory designed to bridge the gap between modern TWPro chimney systems and traditional KC systems. At National Flues, we understand the importance of safety and efficiency in chimney installations. This locking band offers a robust solution that guarantees a secure connection, while maintaining all necessary clearances from combustible materials.
Product Overview
Overview and Materials:
Our locking band is meticulously engineered using an outer layer of 304-grade stainless steel coupled with an inner skin of 316-grade stainless steel, each with a thickness of 0.40mm. This dual-metal construction ensures exceptional durability against corrosion and wear. The product also features compressed rockwool insulation with a density of 200kg/m3, providing superior thermal efficiency. This combination makes the locking band a reliable choice for various applications including solid fuel, gas, and oil appliances.
Certifications and Compliance:
Safety is paramount, and this product is HETAS approved and CE marked, adhering to stringent UK and European safety standards. The locking band not only offers enhanced durability but also ensures consistent performance under high thermal loads. The design accounts for a mandatory 60mm clearance from combustible materials, a key aspect that prevents potential hazards and ensures long-term safety.
Installation Instructions
Step-by-Step Installation:
1. Preparation: Before beginning the installation, make sure all components of your chimney system are at hand and in good condition. Check that the area where the transition will be installed is clear of any combustible materials, maintaining a minimum clearance of 60mm.
2. Alignment: Align the TWPro system at the bottom with the KC system at the top. Place the locking band in position carefully to ensure a perfect fit. Take time to confirm that all parts are correctly aligned to prevent any gaps or leaks.
3. Securing the Connection: Use the provided fixing components to secure the locking band firmly in place. Ensure that all connections are tight and secure to maintain the integrity of the transition. Double-check the fittings after installation to confirm that the locking band is holding firmly without any movement.
4. Final Inspection: Before finalising the installation, inspect the entire assembly. Ensure that the 60mm clearance from combustibles is maintained and that the product is correctly positioned according to manufacturer specifications.
Safety Warnings:
- Do not compromise on the clearances; failure to maintain the 60mm gap can lead to safety hazards.
- Always refer to the manufacturer’s installation guidelines and safety procedures.
- If you are unsure about any step during the installation process, seek professional assistance to avoid potential mishaps.

The integrated compressed rockwool insulation not only enhances thermal efficiency but also contributes to maintaining a stable temperature within the chimney, which can lead to improved energy management and reduced costs in the long run.

Once installed, regular maintenance checks can help ensure your chimney system operates safely and efficiently. Look out for any signs of loosening or wear and tighten or replace components as necessary.

Optional accessories such as sealing gaskets, additional insulation materials, and chimney liners can further enhance the safety and performance of your system. These accessories are designed to integrate seamlessly with the locking band, offering a comprehensive solution that meets all your installation needs.
Installation Tips:
- Always check for compatibility when selecting optional accessories. Confirm that the additional components integrate well with both the TWPro and KC systems.
