Performance that stands up to deflection
For superior head-of-wall vertical deflection, and the added benefit of horizontal drift movement, ClarkDietrich has your answer.
Vinyl L-Bead with Compressible Foam
UltraBEAD, when used in conjunction with UltraTRAK slotted deflection track or Deep Leg deflection tracks, provides joint protection up to ¾” for a 1 or 2 HR concrete deck Head of Wall Joint System at 60% compression.
BLAZEFRAME (DL 1) deep leg
Profile with two solid legs w/ firestop on one side. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System for use in fire rated wall assemblies. Two solid legs supporting “free floating” studs.
BLAZEFRAME (DL 2) deep leg
Profile with two solid legs with firestop on both sides. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System for use in fire-rated wall assemblies. Two solid legs supporting “free floating” studs.
BLAZEFRAME (DSL 2) SLOTTED BOTH SIDES
Profile with two slotted legs w/ firestop on both sides. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System for use in fire rated wall assemblies. Legs with slots spaced 1” o.c. for positive attachment to studs.
BLAZEFRAME (JR 1) Shaftwall deep leg
Profile with two solid legs with fire stop on one side. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System for use in up to 2 hr rated shaft wall assemblies. One leg (front) having intumescent.
BLAZEFRAME (ODL 2) offset deep leg
Profile with two solid legs with firestop on both sides. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System with "offset step" accommodates fireproofing up to 1-1/2" thick in head of wall and wall to wall (column) assemblies.
BLAZEFRAME (ODSL 2) offset deep leg
Profile with two slotted lower legs with firestop on both sides. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System with "offset step" accommodates fireproofing up to 1-1/2" thick in head of wall and wall to wall (column) assemblies. Two legs with slots spaced 1" o.c. for positive attachment of studs.
BLAZEFRAME (SL 1) SLOTTED one SIDE
Profile with one slotted leg and one solid leg w/ firestop on slotted side. Composite Firestop Deflection Track System for use in fire rated wall assemblies. One leg with slots spaced 1” o.c. for positive attachment to studs.
1-Hour RipTRAK
head-of-wall deflection track - 1 & 2 hour system
BlazeFrame RipTRAK is a deflection track with an offset shoulder that represents the thickness of the gypsum board (5/8" or 1-1/4”). A second piece of gypsum board (wall cladding strips) is fit flush to the underside of the slab (w/sealant) or to a fluted deck (without castle cuts & sealant), and is then fastened to the shoulder. This allows the roof/floor assembly and the BlazeFrame RipTRAK to move in relation to the wall assembly. This also allows the wall cladding strips (the rip board) that is attached to the BlazeFrame RipTRAK to slide over the primary wall assembly.
BlazeFrame® RipTRAK™ Shaftwall - 1 HOUR SYSTEM
head-of-wall deflection track - 1 & 2 hour system
BlazeFrame RipTRAK Shaftwall is a ceiling runner with an offset shoulder that represents the thickness of the wall material (5/8" or 1-1/4"). A second piece of board/wall material is fit flush to the fluted deck or slab and is then attached to the shoulder. The BlazeFrame RipTRAK Shaftwall is a UL tested fire-rated head-of-wall joint system for up to 4" Total Deflection Movement.
Traditional, single-track deflection assembly for interior partitions & curtain-wall framing
This traditional assembly accommodates the deflection of the building structure at the head of wall.
DoubleTrack™ or track-over-track curtain-wall deflection system
A DoubleTrack™ system is a two-piece assembly that accommodates deflection of interior partitions and exterior curtain walls.
Used in head-of-wall deflection conditions for exterior curtain wall and interior, nonload-bearing walls
ClarkDietrich Fast Top™ Clips are used in head-of-wall deflection conditions for in-fill curtain-wall assemblies to provide for vertical movement. These clips are used in place of or in combination with deflection track.
Fire rated deflection assembly for interior partitions & curtain-wall framing
The UltraBEAD with Deep Leg Deflection Track system utilizes a deep leg deflection track in conjunction with the UltraBEAD providing a 1 or 2 HR rated assembly for a ¾” max joint and is UL 2079-Fifth Edition compliant.
Fire rated deflection assembly for interior partitions & curtain-wall framing
The UltraTRAK Slotted system utilizes a UltraTRAK slotted deflection track in conjunction with the UltraBEAD providing a 1 or 2 HR rated assembly for a ¾” max joint and is UL 2079-Fifth Edition compliant.
Used in head-of-wall deflection conditions for interior, non-load bearing walls
YurClips are used in head-of-wall deflection conditions to provide for vertical movement.
