Universal Bypass Clips (UBC) UBC8-68, 14 / 1-7/8 in x 8 in x 4-7/8 in

Universal Bypass Clips are used to attach exterior curtain wall studs to the building structure and provide either a rigid connection or deflection connection for vertical building movement.

This product is intended for:

• The clips are available in standard lengths of 6 in, 8 in, 10 in and 12 in and are ideal for medium to larger standoff conditions.
• UNIVERSAL BYPASS CLIPS install quickly with screws, welds or powder-actuated fasteners, and provide adjustable standoff to ensure a plumb wall plane.
• For deflection application, proprietary deflection screws are provided with each clip to ensure friction-free sliding.
