BuckleBridge® provides a solid wall stud bridging system to resist weak axis buckling and torsional rotation of members in load bearing wall and curtain wall applications. The elongated tabs in one end of BuckleBridge locks into a slot at the other end (through the stud knockout) allowing for quick and easy installation. Two vertical flaps at each end contain predrilled holes to facilitate the attachment to the stud in load bearing applications.  BuckleBridge is used with 16” o.c. member spacing.

For bypass connections that do not allow PAF's TSN's VertiClip^® SLB-HD can be utilized to connect wall studs, bypassing the building structure, utilizing either two ¼" concrete screws or one ½" expansion anchors.

For bypass connections that do not allow PAF's TSN's VertiClip^® SLB-HD can be utilized to connect wall studs, bypassing the building structure, two ¼" concrete screws.

The VertiClip^® SLF is used to accommodate vertical deflection requirements for connections between light steel framing and the primary structural system in a bypass condition when the stud web is inaccessible.

VertiTrack^® VT

This is a slotted track used to connect interior studs in fire-rated head-of wall applications. The unique patent-pending integral bushing provides a friction-free connection between the track and stud flanges, preventing the transfer of vertical forces into the drywall assemblies which could cause damage.

MidWall™

MidWall™ is designed to support out-of-plane loading in cantilevered partial wall systems that are unsupported at the top track. The out-of-plane loads are transferred to the floor system through a ½” thick plate nested in the flanges of the member with two 3/8” diameter fasteners used for the connection. Available in two lengths, 24” and 48”, MidWall may be used in place of standard framing members, or in conjunction with them to frame the wall.

CircleTrak^®

CircleTrak^® provides a superior solution for those situations requiring a curved wall construction. Its unique design not only allows for a circular shape but also provides for the ability to form curves by hand. A flat strap in one leg maintains the curved shape of the wall until permanent installation is completed. No additional specialized tools are required to install CircleTrak (aside from standard screws and a drill), and track curvature can easily be re-set if necessary.

PrimeWall^® EQ Stud

The PrimeWall^® Drywall Studs are used in non-load-bearing wall systems that support gypsum board construction.  Each PrimeWall Stud contains knurled flanges for fast fastener placement when connecting sheathing. Pre-punched knockouts are spaced at regular intervals for rapid installation of bridging, electrical wiring, and plumbing. Because The Steel Network is committed to improving overall quality in the construction industry, we insist on utilizing traceable material for all steel in the manufacturing of the PrimeWall Series.
