The British Gypsum Metal C Stud 48mm x 3600mm is used as the vertical support in wall framing, ‘C’ studs are available in a range of widths, lengths, and gauges depending on requirements for strength, and height, impact resistance, and sound insulation. Gypframe profiles are up to 50% lighter than equivalent timber systems and 70% lighter than blockwork, giving a high strength to weight ratio for guaranteed performance and long life.

Key Features

• Includes sight lines down the legs of the stud to ease board alignment and increase profile strength
• Structural apertures are spaced along the spine of the Gypframe ‘C’ Stud, providing easy routing of services through a partition.
• The UltraSTEEL process alters the characteristics of plain steel, providing higher strength capacity at a lighter gauge.
• Along with an aesthetic difference UltraSTEEL offers an improvement in yield strength, carrying capacity, screw retention and pull out
• Gypframe offers a resilient construction material – it won’t rot, warp, shrink or twist on site and can cope easily with the elements
