ProSTUD®
Drywall Framing System
RC Deluxe™ Resilient Channel (RCSD)
Single leg resilient channel
Made of 21mil steel, RC Deluxe is one of the most effective, low-cost methods of improving sound transmission loss through wood and steel frame partitions. RC Deluxe is the preferred resilient channel in many applications because of its extra-wide 1-1/2” screw flange.
Resilient channel should be installed perpendicular to the framing members with the attachment flange of the RC Deluxe installed along the bottom edge. Channel is pre-punched for screw attachments to wood or steel framing members. Nails are not recommended for attaching RC Deluxe resilient channel to framing members. Install maximum 2 layers 5/8” type X.
