Description

Resilient channel, also known as RC or RC-1, is a type of metal channel that is designed to reduce the transmission of sound through walls and ceilings. It is typically used in construction projects where vibrational noises and low bass are a concern, home theaters, or multi-unit housing buildings

Also known as resilient bars or sound isolation channels, are a key component in soundproofing construction. These metal channels are designed to decouple drywall or other wall and ceiling materials from the structural framing. By doing so, they reduce the transmission of sound waves through the structure, effectively minimizing noise transfer between rooms. The channels work by creating a small air gap and adding a flexible layer that absorbs and dissipates sound energy. This makes them especially valuable in environments where noise control is crucial, such as recording studios, multi-family dwellings, and home theaters. Installing resilient channels can significantly enhance acoustic comfort and privacy, making them a popular choice for builders and homeowners alike
