Under normal conditions, FERO Break-Away™ Fire-Release Connectors provide 5 kN of lateral resistance per slot. This is achieved through the interaction between the grooves and the fusible washer. Unlike other available fire-release systems, the FERO system’s support angle functions as a structural

To design energy efficient masonry, stone and granite veneer building enclosures with high-performing thermal ties and connectors that accommodate increasing wall cavity sizes and expanding energy guidelines and codes.

During a fire, the fusible washer will melt and soften, which allows movement to relieve the lateral stresses caused by potential deformation of the framing members. Under extreme deformations, the slots in the plate allow the framing members to completely disengage from the firewall. This allows
