Fast Top™  C L I P 
ClarkDietrich Fast Top™ clips are 
used in head-of-wall deflection 
conditions for in-fill curtain wall 
assemblies to provide for vertical 
movement. These clips are used 
in place of, or in combination 
with, deflection track. They also 
make a positive attachment and 
eliminate the need to install bridging 
continuously throughout the upper-
most punchouts. Attach to the 
underside of structural members, 
concrete decks or floor assemblies.
