Extended FastClip™ (FCEC)

Provides for vertical building movement up to 3” and is commonly used for large standoff conditions

Extended FastClip™ Slide Clip™ (FCEC) deflection clips are used to attach exterior curtain wall studs to the building structure and provide for vertical building movement independent of the cold-formed steel framing.

Quick Actions:

The clips are available in standard lengths of 6", 8”, 10” and 12” and are ideal for medium to larger standoff conditions.
