FERO THERMAL TIES AND CONNECTORS-For Metal Stud

FERO Thermal Slotted Stud Tie (Type I)™

FERO THERMAL SLOTTED STUD TIE (TYPE I) are designed to transfer lateral loads to light structural back-up walls. This tie transfers lateral load from the tie through a plate, which transfers the load to the stud backing.

FERO THERMAL TIES AND CONNECTORS-For Metal Stud

FERO Thermal Slotted Stud Tie (Type II)™

FERO THERMAL SLOTTED STUD TIE (TYPE II) transfers lateral load from the tie through a plate, which transfers the load to the stud backing. As the plate is directly fastened to the stud, all load is transferred efficiently. Best used in steel wall assemblies where the demands of vertical movement between the veneer and the structural backing are.

FERO THERMAL TIES AND CONNECTORS-Insulation Support

FERO Insulation Supports

FERO Insulation Supports are engineered to pack insulation tightly against the backup wall.

Energy Efficiency

Thermal bridging caused by conventionally installed steel shelf angles profoundly affects the energy efficiency of your wall system, limiting the effectiveness of insulation by over 50%. Standing off the shelf angle allows for continuous insulation behind the shelf angle, reducing thermal bridging by only 14%.

Easy Installation

FAST™ Thermal Brackets are readily available in any size height or depth to accommodate any shelf angle, anchoring system, and backup wall type. Installation is quick and simple—anchor the FAST™ Thermal Bracket into the backup wall and slip the angle in. In most cases, only one trade is needed onsite for the complete installation.

View Installation Guide

Onsite Adjustability

FAST™ Thermal Brackets offer significantly greater onsite adjustability than conventional angles. Slots on the bracket offer 1- ¾″ of vertical adjustability, and the FAST™ Thermal Bracket can be rotated to ensure the shelf angle is level. Horizontal adjustment is provided by FERO Shim Plates placed behind the bracket.

Reduce Cost

The depth of the FAST™ Thermal Bracket can be increased to accommodate any wall cavity size while continuing to use a standard 4×4×1/4” shelf angle. This eliminates the need to use larger, much more expensive shelf angles in walls with thicker insulation and larger cavity sizes.

The adjustability and ease of installation by a single trade also reduce cost by speeding up installation time and reducing labor costs.

FERO’s experienced technical staff is available to assist in designing a FAST™ Bracket solution to minimize project materials costs.
