Designers wanting low-cost, space-saving ceilings and walls that provide superior noise control employ Kinetics IsoMax Sound Isolation Clips. Offering significantly higher STC values than drywall attached to resilient channel, IsoMax ensures that installers will not inadvertently screw through the “resilient” leg of the channel into the joist or stud. This feature cannot be underestimated given the frequent, unknown occurrences where resilient channel is accidentally rendered ineffective because it is hard-attached.
Patent No. 7,093,814
The IsoMax Advantage
- Save labor with IsoMax!
- Flexible snap or slide-on clips install quickly, allowing for height adjustments during installation of channel
- Error free installation of standard drywall furring channel
- Eliminates accidental short-circuiting common with resilient channel
- Low profile design; maximizes available occupied space
- Low cost for high performance
- Preferred choice for acoustical performance
- Can accommodate furring channel widths from 2.38" - 2.75"
Additional Features
- Completely engulfs furring channel preventing rattling that comes from metal-to-metal connections, which is common using other isolation clips.
- Bends to allow the clip to adapt and accept all common-sized furring channel
- Easier installation
- Multiple simple methods to install IsoMax
- No need to pinch furring channel to fit in IsoMax
- IsoMax does not need to be dead level to accept furring channel
