Used as the vertical support in wall framing, these products are available in a range of widths, lengths, and gauge depending on requirements for strength, height, impact resistance, and sound insulation.

The Gypframe ‘C’ Stud design is available in 3.6 metre lengths and includes sightlines down the legs of the stud to ease board alignment and increase profile strength.

Structural apertures are also spaced along the spine of the Gypframe ‘C’ Stud, providing easy routing of services through a partition.

Conforms to EN 14195.

Use in conjunction with 72 FE C 50 Floor and Ceiling Channel.

The 3 metre length is from Rapidwall.

How do you extend the length of Gypframe metal stud?

This can be achieved by ‘splicing’ two studs together with an overlap of 600mm minimum, then fixing together using Wafer Head Drywall Screws (two to each flange).

Please refer to White Book Chapter 04 Section 01 Page 07 which includes details for Gypframe ‘C’ studs, AcouStuds and ‘I’ studs.

Which partition types provide high acoustic performance with minimum impact to space?

GypWall CLASSIC using Gypframe AcouStuds, GypWall QUIET SF and GypWall STAGGERED are all good options to meet this requirement.
