We have seen a great response from construction professionals to the DEFLOK® wall bracing system. There have been a few questions, so here are some answers:
Q: What DEFLOK® unit is used for steel, aluminum and timber?
A: We have progressed our base configuration so you can order DEFLOK® and use the same unit for both steel, aluminum and timber applications.
Q: Can I use DEFLOK® for aluminium partition suites and glazing lines?
A: Yes, in fact many aluminium suites don’t have the same vertical deflection allowance as steel deflection tracks, so DEFLOK® is ideal for aluminium.
Q: How much vertical deflection does DEFLOK® account for?
A: DEFLOK® accounts for +/- 35mm of vertical deflection.
Q: How do we know the capacity of the DEFLOK® system?
A: We tested DEFLOK® at full extension, its weakest position, giving us a true capacity.
Q: Can I replace TRACKLOK® with DEFLOK®?
A: Yes, it has been designed to be a direct swap - if you are completing a project where TRACKLOK® is specified, but perhaps the top floor is under a purlin roof requiring vertical deflection allowance, then you can use DEFLOK® at the same centers.
