RCSD 25 21 0.0221 1-1/2 12
Made of 21mil steel, RC Deluxe is one of the most
eective, low-cost methods of improving sound
transmission loss through wood and steel frame
partitions. It 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 prepunched for screw attachments
to wood or steel framing members. Nails are not
recommended.
Sound assemblies are certified by Western Electro-Acoustic Laboratories.
NVLAP accredited for ASTM E90 & E413, ISO Certified.
Additional test reports available through ClarkDietrich Technical Services.
*Values are the same for R-11 insulation.

Made of 25 gauge steel, RC-1 Pro is used as a cross-
furring member for resilient attachment of gypsum.
Knurled face makes wallboard application easier.
Resilient channel should be installed perpendicular
to the framing members with the attachment flange
of the RC-1 Pro installed along the bottom edge.
Channel is prepunched for screw attachments
to wood or steel framing members. Nails are not

RC1 PRO RESILIENT CHANNEL
Resilient Channels for Walls and Ceilings
ClarkDietrich resilient channel is one of the most ecient low-
cost methods developed to reduce transmission of airborne sound
through partition and ceiling assemblies. The resilient channel
dampens sound waves eectively, dissipating the energy and
reducing sound transmission by suspending gypsum wallboard
1/2" from the stud or joist. Sound absorption can be maximized by
utilizing sound attenuation blankets within the wall or floor cavity.
