British Gypsum Gypframe 70 S 50 C Stud 3m

The British Gypsum Gypframe 70 S 50 'C' Stud is engineered with ULTRASTEEL® technology to deliver superior stability, simplified handling, and dependable screw retention thanks to its extended stud leg design.

Featuring a stud leg that extends 5mm beyond standard alternatives, this profile delivers enhanced structural performance and expanded fixing surface for secure board attachment. The embossed edging boosts overall rigidity, preventing twisting and movement throughout the installation process whilst enabling stronger wall assemblies with minimal deflection.

Every stud carries the Gypframe c stud marking for straightforward recognition, granting access to the SpecSure warranty scheme, which protects system performance across the building's lifespan.

Available in lower carbon variants, these Gypframe profiles are labelled "Carbon Low" to distinguish them from conventional options.
