The Steel Network (SLT(L)15) VertiClip® SLT - Exterior Slab Bypass Deflection Clip Connector for Light Steel Framing 15" x 3-86/125" x 3-1/8" x 2-813/1000" x 0-3/8" x 97mils (12ga) (box of 20)

Product Description

The VertiClip® SLT and SLT(L) slide clips are designed to connect exterior curtain wall studs, bypassing a building's structural concrete slab or steel frame, while allowing vertical deflection. The SLT model accommodates up to 1” of movement (½” up and down), while the SLT(L) allows for a larger deflection of up to 1.875” (0.938” up and down). TSN’s patented Step Bushing Technology ensures an anti-friction and anti-seizure connection between the clip and the stud web, preventing the transfer of vertical loads into curtain wall framing. This ensures a reliable connection without overloading the curtain wall system, which is not engineered for axial loads.
