The multi-purpose clip for invisible repairs and perfectly flat butt joints.

The Prest-On Insta-Back eliminates the need for wood backing in two critical areas: drywall repairs and new construction butt joints.

1. For New Construction: The "Floating" Butt Joint

• Flatter Walls: By joining two sheets of drywall between the studs (floating), the Insta-Back pulls the edges into alignment without the "hump" caused by warping studs.

• Eliminate Ridging: Since the joint isn't nailed to a piece of lumber that shrinks and swells, you eliminate seasonal joint ridging/cracking.

2. For Repairs: Patch Without Studs

• Fix Holes Fast: Attach a new piece of drywall to an existing wall without cutting back to the nearest stud.

• Solid Backing: The clips clamp the patch firmly to the existing drywall, creating a bond stronger than the original wall.

Code Approved: Fully compliant with ICC ESR-1812 for use in fire-rated assemblies and structural backing.
