British Gypsum Gypframe 70 AS 50 AcouStud 2.7m

The Gypframe 70 AS 50 AcouStud is a sigma-profiled metal stud engineered to suppress noise transmission through partition systems whilst preserving usable floor space.

British Gypsum Gypframe 70 AS 50 AcouStuds suit 43mm, 70mm, 92mm, and 146mm partition configurations, delivering substantial improvements to acoustic insulation ratings. The specially engineered profile dampens sound as it propagates through the partition, reducing audible noise levels. Featuring an expanded flange width, these studs provide superior rigidity and load-bearing capacity relative to conventional 'C' section studs.
