Slotted Deflection Track Roll Forming Machine Structural Steel Studs And Tracks Roll Former Run In Canada
Slotted Deflection Track Roll Forming Machine
In modern steel framing systems (SFS), the Slotted Deflection Track plays a critical role in accommodating structural movement between primary (concrete or steel) and secondary (light gauge steel framing) structures. These movements are often caused by external forces such as wind, seismic activity, or snow load. In regions with heavy snowfall, building codes frequently mandate the use of deflection tracks to address seasonal changes in roof loading.
Zhongtuo’s Slotted Deflection Track Roll Forming Machine is designed to produce high-quality deflection tracks that meet a wide range of performance requirements. These tracks are essential for external walls where cold-formed steel (CFS) studs are installed slab-to-slab, allowing floors or roofs to deflect without transferring axial loads to the wall studs.
Features Of Slotted Deflection Track Roll Forming Machine
– Material Thickness : Supports steel thickness ranging from 33 mils (20ga) to 97 mils (12ga).
– Width Options : Available in 2-1/2”, 3-5/8”, 4”, 6”, 8”, and 10” widths to suit various project needs.
– Ease of Installation : Designed for quick and efficient steel stud installation, reducing labor costs and construction time.
Key Applications of Slotted Deflection Tracks
– Head-of-Wall Deflection : Ideal for both interior and exterior walls, ensuring structural flexibility and fire resistance.
– Load-Bearing Systems : Suitable for axial load-bearing walls, curtain walls, floor joists, and ceiling joists.
– Fire Resistance : Complies with ANSI/UL 2079 standards for fire-resistant building joint systems.
Integration with Metal Stud Profile Machine
Zhongtuo’s Slotted Deflection Track Roll Forming Machine seamlessly integrates with our metal stud profile machine , ensuring a cohesive production process for both tracks and studs. This combination allows for the creation of complete steel framing systems with unmatched precision and efficiency. Whether you’re manufacturing load-bearing studs or deflection tracks, our metal stud profile machine ensures consistent quality and performance.
- Alignment: The slotted deflection track must be fixed directly to the overhead slab or roofing members, perfectly aligned with the floor track.
- Stud Fastening: Wall studs, produced using a metal stud profile machine , should be secured to the track using wafer-head screws (#8 or #10, minimum 9/16” long) at the center of the slots to allow for up to 1-1/2” of vertical movement.
- Firestopping: In some cases, mineral wool firestop strips are required at the top of the wall to prevent smoke spread during a fire. Wallboards should be trimmed to accommodate movement and fire-retardant materials.
