Universal design-Works with studs in either direction
The FastBack backing system features a universal design that works with studs in either direction—concealing fasteners on the face of the product. Reduces screw pops and touch up work with no exposed fasteners on the face of the product.
The system creates an interlocked design between the stud and track for baseboard backing installations; and a cutaway design allows backing and bracing to be installed all the way to the floor. Optional pre-cut and fire-retardant D-Blaze® or FlamePRO® Wood Backing is sized to fit 12," 16" and 24" o.c. spacing and can be used with the FBBC5 or FBBC10 clip. Available for overnight delivery.
FBBC5-2X, 162-FBBC5-2X and 200-FBBC5-2X are designed to support traditional 2X lumber.
Perfect backing system for:
- Handrails
- Baseboards
- Door Jams and Wood Trim
- Cabinets and Vanities
D-Blaze® and FlamePRO® FRT is pressure-treated wood that is chemically treated to reduce the flamespread and smoke development. Both D-Blaze® and FlamePRO® are Class A fire retardant; EPA registered, and comply with all national codes including the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC).

Load Table Notes:
- Listed loads values for ¾” (5 ply) are nominal test load values, appropriate safety factors/resistance factors should be applied by the designer for calculating loads for intended use. Listed Load values for 2X lumber are calculated utilizing 3.0 factor of safety.
- Shear / Offset (moment-rotation) Load refers to load directed in the plane of the wall.
- Tension Load refers to load directed perpendicular to wall or wood surface.
- Tabulated loads include the contribution of 5/8" gypsum board.
- Test loads were applied to the gypsum board and backing system through a 1/2" thick, 2-3/4" diameter steel plate secured with (4) #12 hex head screws.
- Loads were applied directly through the steel plate or to a steel rod that cantilevered from the plate.
- Typical failure mode in backing testing was the gypsum board failure.
- Framing member design capacities should be checked separately
- Tests were also conducted to evaluate the impact of centered vs offset loading of the wall bracket and test results concluded the offset loading test results were comparable to centered loading test results.
Installation
Rotate the FastBack® clip over the flange of the stud until it sits flush. Fasten into place using (3) #8 wafer head/pan head screws to metal stud at each pre-punched hole. Place wood onto tabs and fasten into place using three #8 wafer head/pan head screws. One screw placed at the center and one screw placed 1/2" from top and bottom edges of wood.
