Flex-Ability Concepts pioneered the development of flexible framing products for use in building curved structures. The ease of use and durable reliability of these products have made them indispensable to architects who like to design without the constraint of straight lines and for contractors who now have a fast, effective way of constructing those designs. Hand shapeable track, arch and angle are made up of pivotal galvanized steel sections in a variety of gauges to fit the requirements of your project.
Flex-Ability Concepts products can be used to frame curved walls, counters, arches, barrel ceilings, wavy ceilings, "S"-curves, columns, soffits, light coves and domes. They can be formed into irregular and French curves or match existing shapes.
Flex-Ability Concepts products provide strong, uniform curved structures. The new Hammer-Lock feature, which has been added to all our curable framing products, significantly reduces installation time and labor. Simple hammer down flat the tabs in each link of the material to lock the shape.
First, bend the track or angle to the desired position. The pivotal sections make it easy to create the perfect curve with no uneven or flat spots.
Second, on a hard surface, such as concrete, hammer the Hammer-Lock tabs to embed them into the web. This secures the shape. For added strength, install self-tapping screws into the side of the Flex-C Trac or Flex-C Angle.
Finally, fasten the track or angle to the floor or ceiling. This secured span of steel provides for a strong, solid installation.
