Flat Tail™ Slide Clip (FTSC)New
Allows for vertical building movement and provides a horizontal standoff
ClarkDietrich Flat Tail™ Slide Clip is used to attach exterior curtain-wall studs to the building structure and provide for 2-1/4" vertical building movement independent of the cold-formed steel framing. A Flat Tail Slide Clip provides variable standoff and eliminates the need for shims or additional framing components.
Quick Actions:
The clip easily fastens to the floor/ceiling beam and is secured to the stud with ClarkDietrich Proprietary Deflection Screws. The clip restricts lateral movement, but enables vertical building movement.
- Ideal for variable standoff conditions
- Vertical movement up to 2-1/4” (1-1/8” up and 1-1/8” down)
- Proprietary Deflection Screws (included) provide frictionless slip connection
- Available in right and left versions
