you can also use builders banding over the hairfelt.

Or how about these ? They are for use in notches, not holes though. Pegler Yorkshire

how would you use that to secure a pipe passing through holes?

It already is secured in the hole where is it doing to go

if you hate it so much why not ask a joiner for a price for lifting boards up and notching if you do him a kindof spec/plan . suppose it could work ok if you had a big heating job to do, or ask a some sort of labourer / hadyman to do it. you never know, times ar hard, work slow for some and its just before christmas, some might be willing to do it. i have done this with chasing pipes in floors ect before. Plumber price per hour is a fair bit more than a loubourer, so you better off going to do something else whilst he is at it, as often he can do it quicker anyway!

I have these for drilling joists with a 240v angled head drill, these wont work with a battery drill.....well, not any that I've tried.

As Gray says what is this bit of kit going to achieve? I usually use a hole saw or spade bit then cut the "corners"! off so end up with this products profile anyway.

Don't pay, get an apprentice! He can drill / cut in any direction and even works when wet. / knee deep in water. Clips when through holes ( 25mm hole speed fit 22 with 15 through it and saddle clips screwed through side of clip into joist. But only sparkies drill joists, not vey easy to feed a length of copper through joist?

Angle drill and hep pipe when possible otherwise some smelly felt and nail clips

The newer guidance for notching says to drill two holes as "corners" and cut two vertical lines down to meet the holes creating a "u" shape rather than rectangular, so these wouldn't fit, TBH if you are notching or drilling joists why do you need to clip them down they are supported at every joist, so a bit of lagging keeps the pipes quiet

I can see every heating squad in the country taking up that idea. They would need to invent a curved rip snorter blade :smile:

A router with a bull nose cutter does the same but faster and you can set depth.

Faster than i snorter? Can you run a room of checks as fast as you can walk with a router?
