The Simpson SCB411.5-KT Bypass Framing Slide Clip Connector Kit is a high-performance, time-saving solution from Simpson Strong-Tie engineered for bypass framing and curtain-wall construction applications. Designed to simplify design and detailing for engineers, this slide-clip connector reduces field labor and material costs by replacing configurations that have typically required two separate parts to accommodate large stand-offs - consolidating the connection into a single, precision-manufactured component. Allowable anchorage loads are provided for use with powder-actuated pins, screws, welds, or Simpson Strong-Tie Titen Turbo concrete screws, eliminating the need to design this anchorage separately. Manufactured in different lengths to accommodate a variety of stand-off conditions and cold-formed steel stud sizes, this kit is a reliable choice for deflection, seismic, and bypass framing installations.

Key Features

• Full 1 in. of both upward and downward vertical movement - accommodates structural deflection in bypass framing applications without compromising connection integrity, reducing the risk of stress-related failures.
• Precision-manufactured shouldered screws included - the XLSH34B1414 #14 shouldered screws are specifically designed to prevent overdriving and ensure the clip functions properly, so installation is consistently correct without additional hardware sourcing.
• Strategically placed stiffeners, embossments, and anchor holes - these engineered reinforcements maximize connector performance, giving engineers confidence in load-carrying capacity across a range of anchorage methods.
• Simpson Strong-Tie No-Equal stamps mark the center of the slots - these alignment indicators help ensure correct shouldered-screw placement in the field, reducing installation errors and saving time during construction.
• Made from 54 mil (16 ga.) steel with a Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - the heavy-gauge construction paired with G90 galvanized corrosion protection delivers long-term durability in demanding framing environments.
• Replaces two-part stand-off solutions with a single connector - simplifies detailing and cuts field labor and material costs for projects with large stand-off requirements.

Why This Product

• Engineered to cut labor and material costs - by consolidating what has traditionally required two separate components into one pre-engineered slide-clip connector, this product directly reduces both the number of parts on the job site and the time needed to complete bypass framing connections.
• Pre-loaded anchorage loads eliminate extra design steps - allowable anchorage loads are provided for multiple fastener types including powder-actuated pins, screws, welds, and Titen Turbo concrete screws, freeing designers from having to engineer this anchorage independently on every project.
• Built-in installation safeguards reduce field errors - the combination of No-Equal center-slot stamps for screw placement guidance and precision shouldered screws that resist overdriving means the connector is designed to perform correctly even under fast-paced job site conditions.
• Versatile across multiple approved applications - rated for bypass framing, curtain-wall construction, deflection connections, cold-formed steel framing, and seismic new construction, this connector adapts to a wide range of structural and architectural project requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much vertical movement does the SCB411.5 slide-clip connector allow?

The SCB411.5 connector provides a full 1 in. of both upward and downward movement, accommodating structural deflection in bypass framing applications.

What type of screws are included with the SCB411.5-KT kit, and why are they important?

The kit includes (83) XLSH34B1414 #14 precision-manufactured shouldered screws. These screws are specifically designed to prevent overdriving and to ensure the clip functions properly, which is critical to the connector's performance.

Why is the SCB connector preferred over a two-part solution for large stand-off applications?

The SCB connector can replace designs that have typically required two parts to accommodate large stand-offs. This reduces field labor and material costs by consolidating the connection into a single, pre-engineered component.

What material and corrosion protection does the SCB411.5 connector offer?

The SCB411.5 connector is made from 54 mil (16 ga.) steel and features a Zinc Galvanized (G90) coating for corrosion resistance, making it suitable for demanding construction environments.
