The British Gypsum Gypframe 60 S 50 'C' Stud incorporates ULTRASTEEL® technology to deliver superior stability, straightforward handling, and dependable screw retention through its extended stud leg design.
Featuring a stud leg that extends 5mm beyond comparable alternatives, this product delivers enhanced strength and expanded surface coverage for board attachment. The embossed edging reinforces structural integrity, reducing twisting and movement during fitting and creating more robust wall assemblies with minimal deflection.
Each stud carries the Gypframe c stud branding for straightforward recognition, enabling access to the SpecSure warranty scheme, which protects system performance throughout the building's lifespan.
Available in lower carbon variants, these Gypframe profiles are labelled "Carbon Low" to distinguish them from conventional options.
