Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?SHARON S : In a retrofit, I am sound dampening between my living room floor and bedroom ceiling below it.

About Auralex RC-8

With Auralex's RC-8 Resilient Channels, you can enhance the sound transmission characteristics of your walls or ceiling systems significantly. These durable and sturdy metal channels are specially designed for hanging drywall, providing a reliable and high-quality solution for your construction or renovation projects.

Instead of directly attaching the drywall to the studs or joists, the RC-8 Resilient Channels are installed horizontally at the bottom and top of your wall, and then every 2 feet or less in between. This strategic placement ensures a robust and secure installation, enhancing the overall durability and longevity of your walls or ceilings.

These resilient channels can support up to two layers of 5/8" drywall and a layer of SheetBlok, even on a ceiling, demonstrating their strength and versatility. The RC-8 Resilient Channels come in convenient 8-foot lengths that are suitable for ground shipping, making them an accessible choice for projects of all sizes.

Each box contains 24 pieces of 8-foot Resilient Channels, ensuring you have ample supply for your project needs. Choose Auralex's RC-8 Resilient Channels for a sturdy, reliable, and high-quality solution for hanging drywall.
