STAND-OFF MPV BRACKET
CLADDING SUPPORT BRACKET
THE SMART SOLUTION FOR ATTACHING METAL PANEL VENEERS
The Stand-Off MPV Bracket is an innovative, adjustable bracket designed for securely fastening metal panel veneers to exterior walls while virtually eliminating thermal bridging. It also provides a mechanical fastening solution for cavity insulation, ensuring compliance with modern building codes.
Traditional Z-furring methods violate 2006, 2009, 2012, and 2015 IEC requirements for continuous insulation over exterior sheathing in light-gauge metal-framed walls. The Stand-Off MPV Bracket solves this issue, allowing for proper ventilation, insulation performance, and energy efficiency.
DESCRIPTION
The Stand-Off MPV Bracket is used to attach thin brick veneer systems to buildings that have continuous insulation installed to the exterior of the sheathing. It is adjustable, simple to install and technically fastened the continuous insulation to the building. It is engineered to be spaced at 1’-4” x 4’-0”. 18 ga G90 galvanized hat-channel is attached to Stand-Off MPV Bracket top plates either horizontally or vertically. The thin brick veneer tray is attached to the hat-furring and the thin brick veneer is installed to the tray.
