A revolutionary structural sidelap connection system for steel roof deck applications.
The DeltaGrip® DG4TM Tool (Patent Number: 11,872,644) builds upon the success of the original DeltaGrip® System by introducing added benefits of higher connection strength, faster cycle time, and increased punch durability.
This powerful, lightweight pneumatic tool fastens the sidelaps of interlocking steel roof deck with a highly effective quadruple punch through three layers of steel roof deck. The interlocking system created by The DeltaGrip DG4 Tool creates a permanent, durable connection significantly stronger than a screwed sidelap and comparable to a welded sidelap connection. This connection resists longitudinal movement and vertical separation when subjected to wind, seismic, or construction loads.
The DeltaGrip DG4 Tool installs faster than sidelap screws, reducing labor costs; eliminating the cost of the sidelap fasteners. The ease of the tool’s pneumatic action requires less energy than a manual button punch and less labor than a welded top seam connection. This combination of a high-strength quadruple punch and faster cycle time makes the DeltaGrip DG4 Tool a superior sidelap connection solution.
