Description
Metsec SFS infill walling forms a secondary structure which is fixed between the primary super structure at floor and soffit. It is generally positioned at the slab edge allowing insulation and external finishes to be installed continuously outside the main structural frame.
Features and benefits:
- Quicker and easier to install than conventional deflection brackets.
- Simpler and faster to install than traditional masonry infill.
- Fewer components on site – less components to store, lose or work with.
- Fix and forget system – no concerns about missing brackets.
- Visible centre line indent indicates fixing location.
- Vertical slots at 25 mm centres allow for flexibility of stud positions.
