QUSTICS QuietClip CIC (Genuine), Sound Isolation Clip; Pack of 100 Pcs. + 100 x 2.5 Drywall Mounting Screws

[Application] Used to reduce sound transmission from airborne and impact noise in interior wood, steel, and concrete construction. QuietClip serves as isolation mount between the drywall and the structure. The resilient sound isolation rubber bearing prevents noise and vibration transmission through the buildup. QuietClip is used with 25 ga. drywall furring channels with 7/8” depth. [Acoustical Performance] QuietClip provides a reduction of up to 17 dB in sound transmission class (STC). The specialty resilient rubber isolator provides low frequency isolation while ensuring stability and longevity. QuietClip is compatible with mass loaded vinyl and green damping glue for enhanced acoustical performance of the overall assembly. [Installation Tips] QuietClip supports up to two (2) layers of 5/8” drywall when spaced no more than 24” x 48” on center. For additional layers of drywall or additional weight from equipment, decrease the spacing of the clips. For wood framing, use #8 x 2-1/2” coarse thread screws for walls, and 3” length for ceilings respectively. For steel framing, use #8 x 1-5/8” self-tapping fine thread screws. Tighten fasteners until they are snug with the metal washer. The clip should rest firmly against the stud. Refer to the drawings for further information. [Key Features] Extremely easy to install. QuietClip uses a unique, non-flammable, UL rated rubber isolator, so it doesn’t go up in smoke in the event of fire. High load capacity of up to 36 lbs/clip with integrated failsafe to prevent over-compression of rubber element. The low dynamic stiffness rubber maximizes acoustical isolation performance. [Use with] 7/8" Furring Hat Channel, 25 ga (18 mil), with hemmed edges; e.g. Clark Dietrich type 087F125-18 (not included); jaw dimensions of QuietClip CIC fit the 2-23/32" width of this furring channel type. [Coverage] Openings, such as doors, windows, and other penetrations will require additional clips around those openings. A box of 100 clips provides for up to 600 SQFT of wall or ceiling (estimated). Used to attach gypsum wall board (GWB) to interior walls and ceilings via a connecting hat channel. This system allows the gypsum wall board to be elastically decoupled from the building structure, increasing the acoustic performance of the assembly. QuietClip CIC sound isolation clip is suitable for use in wood construction, steel construction, and concrete structures. The rubber isolator absorbs vibration energy and prevents any direct fixation of the hat channel into the wall or ceiling studs.
