Gladiator GearTrack 48-in Light Gray Composite Multipurpose Storage rail system
Stud spacing requirements?
2
I've installed these on 24" center studs with # 8 screws and have had no problem. You can certainly move up to # 10 screws for a little more load strength. You can also use flathead screws with a flat washer to help with the load bearing. If you're pushing the 75 lbs. per linear foot loading (max of 300 lbs. for a 4' section) you may want to give Gladiator a call at 1-866-342-4089 for their input on the 24" spacing impact of load capacity.
Was this Answer Helpful ?Thank you for your interest in the Gladiator Garageworks products. The GearTrack channels should be on 4 studs for better strength depending on what is being hung on them. Regarding screws, #8 x 2" screws can be used. If question or concerns, please call Gladiator Garageworks customer service at 866-342-4089 Monday thru Friday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm eastern standard time. Thank you.
