KPS ThermaSmart Clip
Overview
The KPS ThermaSmart Clip provides intermittent structural attachment for the installation of exterior insulated Rainscreen wall panels. Its use greatly improves the effective R-value of the exterior mineral wool insulation. The front of the clip is a 6063-T6 aluminum extrusion. The L-angle base is stainless steel with very low thermal conductivity. The base is available in various depths to match the required insulation thickness and the face bracket is adjustable to allow for precise alignment of the panel system. The ThermaSmart Clip is compatible with all of our high-performance Rainscreen wall panel systems.
