FAS Track® 1000

Why I Should Specify and
Use FAS Track® 1000?
Contractors and Architects Have Spoken
and CEMCO Has Responded
Introducing ... the most advanced version of the FAS Track product line
"FAS Track 1000 ." FAS Track 1000 is the most efficient way to provide
superior fire, smoke and sound protection within a composite deflection track according to UL-2079 without the use of fire caulking .
The intumescent on the FAS Track 1000 is installed solely on the web
where it can perform more efficiently . There are several benefits to
having the intumescent on the web .

FAS Track 1000 provides a sound deadening element to the
head-of-wall joint that has been tested and proven to provide
even greater STC rating than acoustic sealant .

FAS Track 1000 provides a superior gasket when sealing against
uneven concrete decks and with the intumescent compressed
between the track and the concrete deck it ensures that the intumescent will not pull away from the track or be damaged by
other trades .

Best of all, because of the efficiency of the FAS Track 1000 profile,
less intumescent is required so it can be offered at much more
competitive pricing when compared to the current intumescent
deflection tracks on the market and still provide 3/4" movement.

Code Compliance
FAS Track 1000 meets current building codes and its unique profile
design provides industry solutions for meeting deflection requirements where other materials or systems are restricted by design,
compressibility, and constructibility .
FAS Track 1000 has no restrictions providing 100% unencumbered
movement . FAS Track 1000 has been tested for compliance with Section 713 .3 of the 2012/2015 IBC and 2010/2013 CBC and is listed with
UL Underwriters Laboratories in accordance with:
* UL 2079: Tests for Fire Resistance of Building Joint Systems .
* ASTM E 1966: Standard Test Method of Fire Tests of Firestop Systems .
* ULC S115-M95: Standard Method of Fire Tests of Firestop Systems .
* ICC-ES ESR-2012: CEMCO Slotted Track (CST/SLP-TRK® Brand Slotted
Track, CST-W, FAS Track 1000® (FAST 1000), FAS J-Track (FASJ) .
* ASTM E-119 Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Building
Construction and Materials .
* Sound tested in accordance to ASTM E90-09 .

Seismic Requirements
FAS Track 1000 is approved for Class III cycling requirements, 500 cycles at
30 cycles per minute,meeting seismic building codes requirements . The
Class III movement provides design advantages over mastic reliant systems
which are typically limited to Class II (wind sway) capabilities of 500 cycles
at 10 cycles per minute .

Air Leakage Rating
Air leakage tests conducted for compliance with Section 713 .6 of the
2012/2015 IBC and 2010/2013 CBC are witnessed by UL on conditions
using FAS Track as the joint treatment established L-Ratings of less than
1 CFM per lineal foot . Any rating below 1 CFM is also considered the
best possible L-Rating . This is achieved with the FAS Track 1000 profile
which provides a consistent seal against the drywall .

Sound Benefits
Whether the protection you need is Fire, Air (Smoke), or Sound, FAS
Track 1000 is all the protection you need in one easy application .
Sound tests were performed at Western Electro-Acoustic Laboratory in
Southern California to prove that the FAS Track 1000 profile will maintain maximum STC ratings without secondary acoustic sealant applications . In fact, several sound tests were conducted with a ½" to ¾" open
joint at the head-of-wall and with a sealed head-of-wall joint on the
same wall assembly . Both open and closed joints rendered the exact
same STC rating proving that no sound is lost through the open head
of wall joint .
Sound tests were also conducted on a 2-1/2" wide stud double wall
(a .k .a . plumbing-wall or chase-wall) with a single layer on both sides
rendering an STC rating of 60 . Adding one layer to only one side of
the double wall increased the STC rating to 63 .
Additional FAS Track 1000 sound tests were conducted at Orfield Laboratories in Minneapolis, MN on 3-5/8" 20 EQ stud wall assemblies
and produced STC ratings of 50-53 . Complete sound test reports
