SLOTTED STUD™
1-800-275-2279
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Easier to Install - The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ has the deflection slot in the stud, and NOT the track. Studs can be secured anywhere along the track.
Saves you Money - Not only does the STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ cost less to install, you also have substantial savings on the cost of the material.
No Worries - With slotted track deflection products you must be careful not to tighten down the screw that attaches the track to the stud. With the STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ the screws do not attach to the studs and this insures that your wall will deflect regardless of how much the screws have been tightened.
Fire and Smoke Protection - You will have less slots to fire-proof because there are only two slots on each stud, whereas with slotted track deflection products you have 24 slots for each foot of track! The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ makes fire wall and pressure wall systems much easier to install.
Superior Deflection - The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ has a slot of up to 2-1/4" which can allow for up to a 2" Vertical Deflection depending on the installation.
 
U.L. Classified - The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ successfully passed the required 500 cycle tests for the U.L. Classification. The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ is U.L. Classified for both U.S.A. and Canada.
Superior Wind-Load - The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ has far superior Wind-Load capabilities than slotted track. The STEELER® SLOTTED STUD™ is available from 21 to 12 gauge, whereas slotted track is available only for 16 gauge and lighter. Slotted track has slots every inch which significantly reduces the strength of the product to carry wind loads.
