MaxTrak® 2D-XL Slotted Deflection and Drift TrackNew

For head-of-wall connections with vertical deflection, and increased horizontal drift, ClarkDietrich introduces the MaxTrak® 2D-XL Slotted Deflection & Drift Track. The MaxTrak 2D-XL System allows the top of the wall stud to float within the track legs. This connection allows for vertical live load movement of the primary structure without transferring axial loads to the wall studs. In addition, MaxTrak 2D-XL also has slots in the web to allow for horizontal drift when required by seismic designs.

Construction Advantages:

• Provides positive attachment to wall framing for overall wall strength with no additional components
• MaxTrak 2D-XL is available with offset or inline drift slots.

  • 2-1/2" Leg MaxTrak 2D-XL has 1-1/2" long slots with a total allowable vertical (deflection) movement of 1-1/2" (3/4"±)
  • 3" and 3-1/4" Leg MaxTrak 2D-XL has 2" long slots with a total allowable vertical (deflection) movement of 2" (1"±)
• Total allowable horizontal (drift) movement of 8" (4"±)
• One-piece system reduces the cost of materials and labor
• Easy installation reduces labor costs
• Can be used for both interior non-load bearing walls and exterior curtain wall systems
• Embossed guideline at center of vertical deflection slot helps installers correctly position fasteners accurately and quickly
