Brief
The third and manufactured version of the invisible terrace floor joint designed for exterior wooden and composite floors. Main objective of the project was to design a hidden, durable and reliable floor joint that is easy to install and to work with. Key advantage of the product is easy and non-destructive replacement of the floorboard in case of its damage, using only one hex key.

Description
With each iteration there was a material, space saving and manufacturing requirements optimization. Final product version consists of just two simple parts - knob and base - connected by simple yet strong bayonet shape interlock. The parts are designed as bi-directional, so it is impossible to mount them in the wrong direction. Base part is securely fixed by two self-drilling torx screws to the under grid. Flaps keep the planks in place after turning the knob 90° by 5 mm hex key and firmly sliding into the grooves. In case of replacement turn the knob 90° again and easily remove damaged planks. Both parts are designed for plastic injection molding manufacturing and made of glass fiber reinforced polyamide - PA66+GF33.
