This drift slide angle strut is used to connect exterior cold-formed steel curtain wall studs to structural steel frame when large stand-off conditions exist, bypassing the primary structure, while allowing for up to 2” vertical deflection (1” up and down) and 2” lateral drift (1” left and right-in-plane). TSN’s patented Step Bushing Technology provides an anti-friction and anti-seizure connection between the clip and both the stud web surface & track.

Features

• ICC-ES Approved, report #ESR-2049
• If more than 2” lateral drift is required, contact TSN engineering for a custom solution
• Load-rated positive mechanical attachment at each stud
• Patented Step Bushing Technology provides friction-free motion for smooth vertical deflection
• Eliminates loose friction-held assemblies, heavy deep-leg track, & top row of wall bridging/strapping
• Load-rated #12 screws provided for vertical deflection connection to stud web
• Manufactured with certified, 50ksi, 97mil, G90 cold-formed steel
