Resilient Channel

Resilient channel is a highly effective, low cost method of reducing the transmission of airborne sound through walls and ceilings. By separating the drywall from the studs (wood or steel), the channel minimizes the direct paths for sound through the framing. Using resilient channel in connection with sound attenuation blankets increases the effectiveness of the sound resistant framing.

SCAFCO resilient channel is formed from 25 gauge galvanized steel. Resilient channel is installed horizontally starting at 24" from the floor and 24" on the center. This installation is proper for wood or steel framing spaced at 16" or 24". Resilient channel is easily attached with nails or self drilling screws through pre-punched holes.
