Deflection Head Description
92mm Deflection Head is used as a component of the Nashco Steel Stud Wall Framing System. Nashco 0.75bmt Deflection Head includes a safety hem on the upper edge to minimise the chance of cuts and abrasions. Deflection Head is used as the top track or plate of the wall.
The Deflection Head is secured to the soffit or ceiling using a fixing through the back of the track. 92mm Studs are then held in the track by a friction fit connection. Note: Studs cannot be fixed through the side of Deflection Head, if a mechanical fixing is required. Slotted Deflection Head must be used. Deflection Head must be used in lieu of Standard 32mm Floor Track in applications where structural deflection must be allowed for.
Commons applications of the Deflection Head include multi-level concrete structures where the slab deflects or walls that run to the underside of structural steel. Walls that are lined one side only, require a additional row of nogging track within 100mm from the soffit.
