• Fast and convenient way to wrap columns and beams for fire-resistance requirements.
• Clips are hand applied and friction fit for easy installation.
• Fewer materials required and fast installation offers significant labor and material savings.
• Large flat surface area for easy fastener penetration and to accept multiple fasteners if needed.

The clip complies with ASTM A653 and A1003 performance requirements.

 

These are basic installation guidelines. Please see the CB60 Column and Beam Drywall Clip document for detailed installation instructions for the multiple UL Fire-resistive assemblies that utilize the CB60 clip. Slide the CB60 clip onto the flanges of the column or beam.

• Trim the first layer of gypsum board to the outside edge of the CB60 clip.
• Gypsum board will be cut and positioned such that only one joint terminates at any outside corner, with the subsequent layer overlapping the underlying joint.
• Attach the gypsum board with Grabber Type S screws.
• Finish the assembly with the specified type, thickness and layers of gypsum board, corner bead, and joint compound.
