3 5/8 in x 12 ft x 18 Gauge 43 mil TSN VertiTrack VTX Exterior Deflection Track w/ 16 in O.C. VertiClip SL Clip

VertiTrack® VTX deflection track connects exterior curtain wall studs at head of wall to the building frame while allowing for vertical deflection of the structure of up to 1½” (¾” up and ¾” down). A VertiClip® SL is pre-assembled at 16”o.c. or 24”o.c. (or any pre-required stud spacing). VertiClip’s unique design provides both an anti-friction and anti-seizure connection between the clip and the stud web surface thereby preventing a transfer of vertical forces into curtain wall framing, which is not engineered to support axial loads. Use of VertiTrack VTX over friction-fit track assemblies minimizes liability through the utilization of positive mechanical attachments to the web of the stud.
