British Gypsum Gypframe 70 S 50 C Stud 4.2m

The British Gypsum Gypframe 70 S 50 'C' Stud is engineered with ULTRASTEEL® technology to deliver superior stability, easier handling, and improved screw retention through its extended stud leg length.

Featuring a stud leg 5mm longer than standard alternatives, it delivers greater strength and expanded surface area for secure board attachment. The embossed edging enhances rigidity, reducing twisting and movement during installation whilst supporting stronger walls with minimal deflection.

Each stud carries the Gypframe c stud branding for straightforward identification and access to the SpecSure warranty, which covers system performance throughout the building's lifespan.

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