This vertical deflection strut is used to connect exterior cold-formed steel curtain wall studs to structural steel frame when large stand-off conditions exist, bypassing the primary structure, while allowing for a vertical deflection of the structure up to 1 ½” (¾” up and ¾” down). TSN’s patented Step Bushing Technology provides an anti-friction and anti-seizure connection between the clip and the stud web surface.
