CLADIATOR - Built to Conquer New Challenges. CLADIATOR is a manufacturer of thermally isolated structural cladding attachment systems. Our mission is to accelerate the advancement of smart building design and construction by providing unique and cleverly engineered systems. For Architects and Engineers it means a simple yet robust solution where one core design offers the freedom of limitless creativity. For Installers, working with intuitive installation components means faster, more cost-effective, and ease-of-mind options to complete projects on time. Our universal systems offer improved thermal efficiencies while achieving rainscreen principles such as air and moisture ventilation with the use of long-lasting globally responsible materials. We remain dedicated and driven by our commitment to continuous improvement.
For rainscreen and continuous insulation assemblies, our CL 300 and SLOTTED-Z systems are thermally isolated and can bear the weight of any cladding material. These systems can integrate horizontal and vertical tracks for attachment on the same plane, making it easier and faster to install any assembly pattern without additional components. Our SLOTTED-Z Fiberglass Girt provides added air and moisture ventilation which facilitates the regulation of moisture content, reducing the risk of water damage, rot, and mold. In addition, the use of optional ROCKETStick insulation securement will secure all types of insulation while creating an air gap.
Additional CLADIATOR information:
Creates 1/2 to 1 inch of air space without additional attachment components.
Fabricated with slots of a specific size that act as weep holes for ventilation and egress for moisture.
Insulation securement system replaces the need for stick pins / mechanical fasteners.
Passes ULC S-134 in addition to NFPA 285.
Performance properties that exceed similar products.
Additional components include termination tracks for window and door conditions utilizing adjustability and removing the necessity for shim.

Fasten SLOTTED-Z to the substrate directly to the steel stud, concrete, or wood as applicable, at intervals indicated in the Details for each specific project.
Ensure assembly is plumb, level, and free of warp or twist; maintain dimensional tolerances and alignment with adjacent work.
** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** CLADIATOR recommends the use of one of the following Insulation materials: Mineral Wool/Mineral Fiber Insulation, Foil Faced Extruded Polystyrene (XPS), and Foil Faced Polyisocyanurate (ISO).
Insulation:
Install into the exterior cavity SLOTTED-Z and in accordance with insulation manufacturer's instructions.
** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Insulation clips are optional. Delete the next paragraph if not required.
After placing the insulation material, use insulation clips for fixing the insulation.
Accommodates semi-rigid mineral wool insulation or rigid foam board insulation.
Proprietary Panel Guidance, Secondary Structural Supports:
Install girts, angles, and other secondary structural panel support members and anchorage according to the Light Gage Structural Institute's guide specifications and related roof and wall panel sections.
Install sufficient anchorage devices to fasten system securely and rigidly to building in accordance with Drawings and approved Shop Drawings. Fasteners to be concealed.
Provide anchors to be installed in other work, and setting details, in time for proper installation by trades concerned; verify correct placement.
