Styles AB1/AB2/AB10 Brackets / Installation Instructions
INSTALLATION OF THE STYLE AB2 BRACKET
FOR ASTM C645 HAT FURRING CHANNEL
CEILING SYSTEMS INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH ASTM C754 STANDARDS
(FM AND VdS ONLY)
1.
Using a T25 drive bit, remove the pre-installed sheet metal screw
from each Style AB2 end bracket.
NOTE:
For adjustment purposes, the wing screw on top of the Style
AB2 end bracket assembly can be loosened to allow the end bracket
to slide on the square bar. Tighten the wing screw on top of the end
bracket assembly to a torque of 36 inch-lbs/4 N•m (approximately 1/2 to
3/4 of a turn past hand-tight) to secure the end bracket to the square bar.
2.
Attach the end brackets of the Style AB2 Bracket to the T-bar rails
of the CD Profile (60 mm) Channel Ceiling System. Verify that the
ends of the Style AB2 Bracket engage the rails.
3.
To secure the end brackets to the T-bar rails of the CD Profile
(60 mm) Channel Ceiling System, tighten a #10 diameter x 1-inch
length sheet metal screw (not provided) into the center and bottom
right hole locations of each end bracket (four total locations), as
shown above. Penetrate each sheet metal screw through the T-bar
rail until the end bracket is seated fully against the T-bar rail.
DO NOT over-tighten the screws. Over-tightening will cause the
screws to strip, resulting in an unsecured bracket connection.
4.
Verify that the wing screw on top of the end bracket assembly is
tightened to a torque of 36 inch-lbs/4 N•m (approximately 1/2 to 3/4
of a turn past hand-tight).
5.
Follow steps 2a and 2c on page 9 to complete the assembly.
