ProSTUD®
Drywall Framing System
FastHook FastClip™ (FHCL, FHCR)
Enables faster installation by eliminating the need for temporary clamps
ClarkDietrich FastHook FastClip™ is a revolutionary new technology that allows the installer to temporarily hang the clip in place on pour stop or perimeter angle, freeing both hands for the installation of permanent fasteners. ClarkDietrich FastHook 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.
Available in Right-hand and Left-hand versions. FastClip Deflection Screws are provided with each clip to ensure friction free sliding. Each clip is also embossed with fastening patterns to ensure accurate placement of fasteners.
- Vertical movement up to 3"(1-1/2" up and 1-1/2" down).
- Positively attached. Eliminates friction-held and temporary fastening.
- FastClip™ Deflection Screws (included) provide frictionless slip connection.
- U.S. Patent Pending.

Installation
The FastHook FastClip™ is placed on the structural angle prior to the slab being poured. The permanent connection to the building must be made with screws, welds, powder-actuated fasteners or drill-in concrete anchors, per design. Mechanical fasteners shall be located on the embossed marks given on the scored line of the 1.5" flange. Three FastClip™ Deflection Screws (based upon clip size) are used to attach the clip to the cold-formed steel framing. Screws shall be driven through the slotted holes and positioned to allow for the appropriate building deflection.
FastClip™ deflection screws
Many of the ClarkDietrich deflection clips include our proprietary FastClip fastener that has been specifically designed to provide friction-free deflection. These fasteners eliminate drag, binding or resistance that can often occur with common fasteners.
