Slotted Deflection Track

For superior control of head-of-wall lateral deflection and axial rotation; Studco’s Rapid Track™ slotted deflection track is a dynamic solution to interior and external walls that require heavy weight loading or are subjected to dynamic wind loads.

Rapid Track gives the top of the steel stud wall the ability to float within the track legs allowing vertical live load movement of the primary structure without transferring axial loads to the wall studs.

In addition, Rapid Track also has slots in the web to allow for horizontal drift when required by seismic designs. Available in 2-1/2″ Leg lengths and a variety of web widths Rapid track is easy to install and reduces the cost of materials and labor.
