ASC Steel Deck, a business unit of ASC Profiles LLC
ASC Steel Deck’s DeltaGrip Side Lap Attachment System is a steel deck mechanical side-seam attachment system for high diaphragm shear capacities. The system provides high diaphragm capacities similar to top seam welds. The DeltaGrip tool punches three triangular tabs through standing seam interlock side-seams with the rapid action of a pneumatically powered tool. Additionally, the DeltaGrip side lap attachment eliminates field touch-ups, leaving the undersides of exposed steel decks free of undesirable burn marks.
