Aluminum Burn Clip
ClarkDietrich aluminum burn clips 
are used as part of the H-stud area 
separation wall assembly and are 
designed to melt when exposed 
to fire. The clips hold the area 
separation wall assembly in place 
at the floor, roof and truss line 
between adjacent units. In a fire, 
the aluminum burn clips on the 
fire-ridden side of the wall will melt, 
allowing the wall structure for that 
side to collapse.

The RSIC-1
®
 resilient sound isolation 
clip is used in conjunction with 
drywall furring channel to fasten 
gypsum wallboard to various wall and 
floor-ceiling designs and applications, 
while simultaneously providing 
acoustical separation (decoupling). 
This significantly reduces the amount 
of impact and sound that filters from 
surrounding rooms—reducing the 
noise transfer by 75 to 100%.
