Installation

Installation Sequence

1) Connect to Primary Structure

Secure connector to primary structure with specified fasteners (2 No. TNT through hexagonal holes for concrete support [B] or 8 No XLQ through round holes for steel support [C]) . When connecting to a concrete support a minimum fastener edge distance of 50mm is required [A]

2) Install Lower Stud

Secure lower stud with specified number of XLSH screws into the movement slots [D]. Screws are to be fixed centrally within the movement slots, allowing a vertical movement of the lower stud. A minimum end distance of 12.5mm is required [E].

3) Install Upper Stud

Secure upper stud with specified number of X1S screws through the round holes [F], ensuring that the lower screws are a minimum of 12.5mm from the bottom end of steel stud [G]. Minimum gap between upper and lower studs is 12,5mm [H]
