The Steel Network (DSL800) DriftClip® DSL - Exterior Head of Wall Drift & Vertical Deflection Clip Connector for Cold-Formed Steel Framing 8" x 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" x 97mils (12ga) (box of 25)

Product Description

The Drift Slide Angle is engineered to connect exterior cold-formed steel curtain wall studs to the slab at the head of the wall, accommodating up to 2 inches of vertical deflection (1 inch up and down) and 2 inches of lateral drift (1 inch left and right). Featuring TSN’s patented Step Bushing Technology, this connection ensures friction-free and smooth movement between the clip, stud web surface, and track. ICC-ES approved and load-rated, it offers a positive mechanical attachment at each stud, eliminating the need for loose friction-held assemblies and reducing the need for heavy deep-leg tracks and additional wall bridging.
